Andy Nelson - Sound of the Sea lyrics

There are many things that I cannot explain As if knowing would help me to walk away As if knowing somehow would make a change I'm still searching I'm still searching now Try and run when you can't even walk away I guess I never really heard the sound of the sea When the waves are crashing above my head I try not to think of it I guess I never really learned how to move my feet When the music plays loud enough to drown our voices out I've tried to say it a thousand times now I think I found it in an empty bar where I sang aloud And didn't know if anyone could really hear me But I was speaking in tongues, so I was never wrong As ships in bottles capsize to this song I'm still drowning in the wreckage I'm still searching now Try and run when you can't even walk away Try and speak when you have nothing to say I'm a shell on the beach I'm a dog in the street (Try and run when you can't even walk away) I'm a common household thing But you can see the smile on my face (Try and speak when you have nothing to say) I guess I never really heard the sound of the sea When the waves are crashing above my head I try not to think of it I guess I never really learned how to move my feet When the music plays loud enough to drown our voices out I've tried to say it a thousand times now
