Bury me in novelty, smother me with something new
My soul's gone wandering
Don't you go wanting it, too

Plant this, the Atlantic, the sadder side of what I know
Where I can't take it in
I've thrived on making it flow

But then that's just what I do, don't make me do what I do
Just tell me when it starts now.
It can't be very hard now
It's when I start to feel blue
I just can't look at the sky without pretending it's mine
Cause when you've got more than you want
And it's nobody's fault
There's nothing sad about dying

But for now everything's alright.

Snowed in Ohio, wind that stings like bourbon straight
It rains every now and then
I'm shocked at how much they can make

Live this, the Pacific, carry it around your neck
Don't let me weigh you down
Don't let me waste your respect

But then that's just what I do, don't make me do what I do
Just tell me when it starts now.
It can't be very hard now
It's when I start to feel blue
I just can't look at the sky without pretending it's mine
Cause when you've got more than you want
And it's nobody's fault
There's nothing sad about dying
