East Coast Clouds Lyrics

Two blocks from the beach, I would walk to the pier

A twenty-four, FL, OZ of beer

The summer never mentioned it was already here

Now in the rearview mirror palm trees disappear

I've gotta get West now and follow the sun

Don't wanna stay on this beach like a goddamn bum

All of these party-people doing drugs by the sea

All these illusions that will swallow what you're trying to be

Everything changes when you turn twenty-one

And all of the strange things under the sun

Using this language while you speak to someone

About this paradise

So I got in my car and drove away from the sea

Broke down in the mountains up in Tennessee

This life it can be hard when you're trying to breathe

Inevitable struggle, but you gotta break free

Got back on the road after I lost my mind

I wasn't sure what was West or what I would find

October, as sober as I was on this day

The East Coast Clouds were fading away

Everything changes when you turn twenty-one

And all of the strange things under the sun

Using this language while you speak to someone

About this paradise, some paradise
