Lyrics
Just think of the lives you could swap with your own
While you're selling your coats, you're sewing your own
You know it's not the easy way

Sometimes we've got to pay to play
With finger paints and macrame
It's time we asked the sea and say
Could you bring a different nomenclature?

Now the colors have bled to gray
To ones that don't exist in nature

A nomenclature is washing away, washing away
A nomenclature is washing away, washing away
But did it carry you away, carry you all the way?

Did it carry you away, carry you all the way?
Nomenclature's washing away, oh it's washing us all away
Nomenclature's washing away, oh it's washing us all away
