Sea Dogs Songtext
von Darlingside

Sometimes I see things that other people don′t see
Sometimes I do not see them
I don't apologize anymore, I just lace up my gray sneakers

I can′t wake up all the time, or even half the time, or-
Even be on time

Now the backyard is thickening, how is it everything?
Living will one day die
The dirt is all clean and the branches are crisscrossing
Everything's sun in my eyes

I can't be there all the time, or even half the time, or-
Even tell you the time


When up in the clouds are sea dogs, and kites, and big white basketballs
The backyard is thickening, how is it everything?
Everything is alive, alive

Alive, alive

Past the woods and the Skokie lagoons
We were half-drunk and bulldozing Lake Michigan
I was free to choose not to be me or you
Who am I ever and ever again?

I can′t be me all the time, or even half the time, or-
Ever make up my mind

When up in the clouds are sea dogs, and kites, and big white basketballs
Monsters appearing in a cotton ball line
Everything is alive, alive

Alive, alive
