I got high with an art teacher of mine
I learned how to paint portraits and landscapes with perspective
But I've been sitting here the better part of eighteen years
Blank stare, blank canvas
I'm in need of a new view
Of some new scenery to render
There's a boat leaving
Where it goes, I don't know
I've been buried alive
A history teacher by my side
lest I forget those mistakes that better men have made
Battles fought and lost
Small victories at what cost
But the curriculum is dated
My inspiration fading
A slow, setting sun
There's a boat leaving
Where it goes, I don't know
But if it floats I'm getting on with or without you
If the winds are strong enough or native tongues will fail us
O, the pleasure I would take in renaming everything
There are boats leaving
Where they go, I don't know
But it's a chance to see something new
Will you come with me?
i'm no good so i'll let everyone else do the talking abt how great this album is bc i have more important things to talk abt like that it was recorded in my hometown!! i was walkin around a stupid little ten-year-old and they were in the stu makin this album less than a mile from my house!! what!!!!!
