Sea Legs
The Shins
[Intro] [Verse 1] Of all the churning random hearts under the sun Eventually fading into night These two are opening now as we lie I touch you under fuller l-i-g-h-t Girl if you’re a seascape I’m a listing boat for the thing carries every hope I invest in a single l-i-e The choice is yours to be loved Come away from an emptier b-o-a-t [Chorus 1] Cause when the dead moon rises again We’ve no time to start a protocol to hem us i-n And when the dog slides underneath a train There’s no cry no use to searching for what mutts remain Throw all consequence aside in a cheerless pyre we set alight [Verse 2] Of all the intersecting lines in the sand I routed a labyrinth to your lap I never used a map sliding off the land on an incidental tide And along the way you know they try they try And we got sea legs and we’re off tonight Can I’ve that to which they’ve no right? You belong to simpler time I’m victim to the impact of these w-o-r--s And this r-h-y-m-e [Chorus 2] Cause when the dead moon rises again We’ve no time to start a protocol to hem us i-n And when the dog slides open the door and where’d she go There’s no time no use to searching for the mutts remains Throw consequence aside in a cheerless pyre we set alight [Outro]
