Lyrics
1:12Back on the island Water Tunnel 3
1:17A cage ascending someone looks like me
1:23Look up at fingers reaching into space
1:28A Roman soldier's spearhead jammed above the waist
1:46Heard someone speaking a voice without a face
1:52The ocean's churning the cables stay in place
1:57An operation the locals couldn't save
2:02An undercover agent drowned beneath the waves
2:08Outside the confines of a super-mini's door
2:13There's a California king placed directly on the floor
2:19Oh the surfer can't forget the shells around his neck
2:24But you were born beneath fluorescent lights
2:27You've never seen a starry night you saint
2:59Fake fortune teller scandalized by fate
3:05Broke bodybuilder crushed beneath the weight
3:10Lost and deluded trying to find your place
3:15Inept long-distance runner losing every race
4:07Outside the confines of a super-mini's door
4:12There's a California king placed directly on the floor
4:17Oh the surfer can't forget the shells around his neck
4:22But you were born beneath fluorescent lights
4:26You've never seen a starry night you saint
Back on the island Water Tunnel 3 A cage ascending someone looks like me Look up at fingers reaching into space A Roman soldier's spearhead jammed above the waist Heard someone speaking a voice without a face The ocean's churning the cables stay in place An operation the locals couldn't save An undercover agent drowned beneath the waves Outside the confines of a super-mini's door There's a California king placed directly on the floor Oh the surfer can't forget the shells around his neck But you were born beneath fluorescent lights You've never seen a starry night you saint Fake fortune teller scandalized by fate Broke bodybuilder crushed beneath the weight Lost and deluded trying to find your place Inept long-distance runner losing every race Outside the confines of a super-mini's door There's a California king placed directly on the floor Oh the surfer can't forget the shells around his neck But you were born beneath fluorescent lights You've never seen a starry night you saint
