One man standing on the plains of Abraham

Watching a damaged sunrise

One man standing near the edge of a quiet

Breakdown



I watch the sea

It helps to anchor me

I watch the sea

It helps to anchor me



Once you start hiding, you keep on hiding

'Til your paranoia calms down

Once you start watching, you keep on watching

'Til you're tied up and you're spell-bound



Just between the ice ages, anyway

I want to talk, but I haven't got too much to say

I don't mean to be so nihilistic

Forgive me if I seem to be too realistic



Once you start running, you keep on running

'Til your muscles start to break down

Once you start falling, you keep on falling

'Til you hit the cold, cold ground



I watch TV

What do you want from me?

I watch TV

What do you want from me?



Just between the ice ages, anyway

I want to talk, I haven't got enough to say

I don't mean to be so nihilistic

Forgive me if I seem to be too realistic



Once you start hiding, you keep on hiding

'Til you feel you're safe and sound

Once you start watching, you keep on watching

'Til you're tied up and you're spell-bound



I watch the sea

It helps to anchor me

I watch the sea

I saw it on TV
