The Sea from Paved Mountain by Radical Dads

We were walking
Down by the ocean
I was running
The stones across my fingers
I was thinking
About navigation
We were a stone's throw from the land

This pebble's speckled
with the light of the day
The salt is drying up
but won't go away
I was thinking about my collection
and I was thinking about all the things that stay


I want to throw it back
because the shine will never last
It's just one dull moment leading into the next


This destitution
was not cut out for me
My best friend
is all I really need
The sea, the sea, the sea
is receding from me
The sea, the sea, the sea
there's something chasing after me


I want to throw it back
because the shine will never last
It's just one dull moment leading into the next


First it crumbles
then it breaks
then all the rest fades away
