Is The Ocean Blue Or Green? Lyrics

100 and ten men on a sinking ship, as it slowly slips into the sea

And all they do is argue, whether that ocean is blue or green

We can search, where no meaning lies, arguing truth black, white or gray

And all the while, what is real just gets up and walks away

Stardust, nothing ever remains

The brightest sun burns out someday

Stardust, everything goes away

Forever was yesterday

Long-term plans and one night stands, endless revolving doors

Reality creeps up and I can't see the trees for the forest

Gold and silver, fortress walls, turns out to be only brass and chrome

Sometimes we dig for truth, and all we get is an empty hole

Stardust, nothing ever remains

The brightest sun burns out someday

Stardust, everything goes away

Forever was yesterday

Fallen gods stand in line like everyone else

With nothing but who or what they used to be

Did they ever figure anything out?

Whether the ocean was blue or if it was green?

Stardust, nothing ever remains

The brightest sun burns out someday

Stardust, everything goes away

Forever was yesterday
