Out on the open sea
The water carries me to where I have never been before
(To live is to change)
Sailing through the reef
Far from reality where there used to be a you and me
I'm starting over
You'll never find me (I'll be a castaway)
I'll float forever
Upon the deepest sea
I never claimed to be a good man
Where did you get that impression?
Did you never see me when I
Buried each mistake and indiscretion
In the aftermath of every calamity
Didn't you see me
Neck deep in my disgrace
My fingers move across this place
The demons they all know my name
But to live is to change
Out on the open sea
The water carries me to where I have never been before
(To live is to change)
Sailing through the reef
Far from reality where there used to be a you and me
I thought my words would be enough to counter
The dangerous things I had done
And from start to the finish I thought I could win this
But now that I'm in this
The only thing left to do
Is run
Run
Run away
'Cause to live is to change
I'm starting over
You'll never find me
I'll float forever
Upon the deepest sea
The scenery has changed
And yet I feel the guilty stain
These demons they still know my name
