Lyrics — Lucas and the Sea
They say Lucas had a steady job, working on a master plan
Never had a second just to sit and breathe or feel the sand
Counting down the minutes of the day inside a concrete box
Now he’s throwing pebbles from a pier and listening as they drop
He just walks by the sea
Unaffected by
The things they say he needs
And he’ll pretend that
We are somewhere else
So open and so free
A million miles away
From the speed
Now his mother’s worried 'bout his choices, thinks he’s lost his golden mind
But he’s trading silver for the morning light he left behind
Waking with the sunrise, drinking coffee on a wooden chair
Watching all the shadows stretch across the boardwalk over there
He just walks by the sea
Unaffected by
The things they say he needs
And he’ll pretend that
We are somewhere else
So open and so free
A million miles away
From the speed
It's a heavy kind of bargain when you're buying back your own sweet time
Trading every dollar just to write another quiet line
But the ocean doesn't care about the debts that you have left to pay
It just keeps on rolling, washing all the busy thoughts away
If Lucas found a better way...
Or is Lucas gonna stay?...
