These days go by like trucks and trains Some hit so hard you barely feel a thing Lights out right now back then and forevermore Lights out left now these robots marching To the nearest liquor store There's something green that's leaving town Always thought it was blue Always knew I was wrong Where it goes hell knows maybe somewhere better than here And what they say of the grass on the other sides true Too much time looking up is turning everything blue Including me - including you Including you These times count down like boats and planes Some wash away in undertow Some plummet down in flames Lights out right now back then and forevermore With sirens on this ambulance is racing to the west coast shore There's something blue that's leaving town We always talked about black we're considering brown Where it goes hell knows Maybe somewhere better than here And what they say of the grass on the other sides true Too much time looking up's turning everything blue Including me, including the ocean, including you Feel the ocean blue Engulfing you I view the deep blue sea It's turning red right in front of me There's something gray that's leaving town And it's way beyond me How it gets off the ground Where it goes hell knows Maybe somewhere better than here And what they say of the grass on the other sides true Too much time looking ups turning everything blue Including me, including the pilots, including you
