lyrics
to never say die... to never grow old
I’m still chasing those ships
still searching for gold
and are we alive if we act like machines
reassembled with flesh
to play out these scenes
astoria
your songs are calling me home
still there in my heart
still held in my bone
your shoreline
the truth, it’s buried within
I’m still hunting for hope that I held as a kid
who is your father and what does he do
cause all his hopes, all his fears
they’re passed on to you
we’re born to be free
to swim far and wide
but all these columns we’ve built
they continue to bind
I’m still chasing those ships
still searching for gold
and are we alive if we act like machines
reassembled with flesh
to play out these scenes
astoria
your songs are calling me home
still there in my heart
still held in my bone
your shoreline
the truth, it’s buried within
I’m still hunting for hope that I held as a kid
who is your father and what does he do
cause all his hopes, all his fears
they’re passed on to you
we’re born to be free
to swim far and wide
but all these columns we’ve built
they continue to bind
