Started in the middle and I swept to the corners
By the time I got home, the house was filled with foreigners
I'm just a nomad, roaming cell phone ad
Does the homeless guys ghost gotta sit and beg for mourners
Tell me a tale of untangled motion
I'm losing your love, in untamed devotion
Call me a child, but I need the notion
Even the lost creek will reach
I guess I grew weary of watching my backwoods
Turned around, sat down, wondered if I could
Be riding the streamline, into the mainline
Tell me, how does the tuna wind up in the canned goods...?
Tell me a tale of untangled motion
I'm losing your love, in untamed devotion
Call me a child, but I need the notion
Even the lost creek will reach
If your mind is limber, then I think you will see
If you're mining for lumber, then it's coal you seek
Way back there, at the roots of my hair
There wasn't a diamond, just a living tree
Tell me a tale of untangled motion
I'm losing your love, in untamed devotion
Call me a child, but I need the notion
Even the lost creek will reach
Think back to the days that were brooding and mean
Bottled thoughts are best when they're smashed to smithereens
On the bow of the launch of this, ship called consciousness
When a thought's caught in motion, they call it a stream
Tell me a tale of untangled motion
I'm losing your love, in untamed devotion
Call me a child, but I need the notion
Even the lost creek will reach
The ocean... the ocean... the ocean... the ocean...
The ocean... the ocean... the ocean... the ocean...
