A doorway opened Endless ocean Super highway Scoundrels unbind The ship was gently swaying, cradled Smooth sailing in a wintery July The silence of a lifeless soul Shimmers in the early morning glow Like the chorus in a Greek tragedy The thunder's knock, knock, knocking Devil's staring back at me, yeah
Lightning strikes upon the nose of my boat As I'm shape-shifting and drifting, trying to stay afloat Crystal clear, I got the vision of a deer in the headlights The end is near without a fear in sight
The moon speaks to me this night She says, "Follow my light Like a moth's inner compass" She says, "Chase what you can't have Oh, this land-borne curse clings to you like algae If only you were a star, you'd be not sedentary" I said, "I have always wondered If I could step out of my body Would I be a fish out of water Or like a school in harmony? So, Miss Moon, if I could have one wish I'd turn my hands into wings I'd say goodbye to the fish And I'd jump from the highest cliff" Yeah I wanna be aerodynamic
Never gonna get there, never gonna get there Holy land is a figment Never gonna get there, never gonna get there Sailing for infinity Never gonna get there, never gonna get there Holy land is a figment Never gonna get there, never gonna get there This ship is a shipwreck
I'm just floating away on this barrel of pain Is this just me stranded at sea in a sailor's dream? I'll just sing to the sharks and maybe they'll think twice They're just trying to survive in the world like me, alright I ain't got hope, but I can't help but smile That forty odd thousand foot of tears Won't save me from an appetite I accept my fate, my time is nigh I'm just gonna sit here and watch the waves roll by
I wanna be aerodynamic
