lyrics

I can't get to sleep
but I'll find the time to act my age.
With my kids on the street for now
well I've got wealth on the brain.

You look surprised,
didn't anybody tell you?
Well you won't go to hell,
and it's not buried beneath the waves.

The oceans I've wasted til now.
The cold light is the only one,
the only one staying around.
And I can't wait to get right past it.

It's not going to stop,
and the boy will light you up one day.
With a hand on the silver light,
I've got death on the brain.

You look surprised,
didn't anybody tell you?
Well he's passed on our name for now,
and it's just the ocean.

The moments I've wasted til now.
The cold light is the only one,
the only one staying around.
You can see that body come
and lay right in the ground.
Well you can tell my Mother
that the pale moon is here and now.
And I can't wait to get right past it.
