I want a big house that sits by the shore
and when I wake up, I can watch the tide rise
All of my friends they would live next door
and every night we'd build a fire in the back yard
We'd listen to all our favorite songs
watch it burn and we'd sing along
On and on and on (uh oh oo oh)
On and on and on
Woke up this morning, it was bitter cold
Peaced together where the car was parked
Now I'm running late to work
I took the back roads behind the prison yard
This year is sinking by so slow
This town has watched me come and go
On and on and on (uh oh oo oh)
On and on and on
Do you believe that your in control?
Of the things that you say you want
I lay awake watching TV shows
And get the feeling that we are the products
of generations that search and forgo
We do the best just to stay afloat
On and on and on (uh oh oo oh)
On and on and on (uh oh oo oh)
On and on and on
The waves crash, on and on and on (uh oh oo oh)
On and on and on
When you feel the water pull you down
your caught up in their gravity
Dont let em' take you out to drown
just hold your head above this
Can we go back to the place
when we were standing at the top
maybe we're living everyday, like its the last one that we got
Yeah we'll go back to the days, that went on and on and on
and we'll get back to the place
where waves crashed on and on and on and on and on
(on and on and on uh oh oo oh)
and when I wake up, I can watch the tide rise
All of my friends they would live next door
and every night we'd build a fire in the back yard
We'd listen to all our favorite songs
watch it burn and we'd sing along
On and on and on (uh oh oo oh)
On and on and on
Woke up this morning, it was bitter cold
Peaced together where the car was parked
Now I'm running late to work
I took the back roads behind the prison yard
This year is sinking by so slow
