the roland high life – old atlantic lyrics
chorus
take me to the old atlantic
where i’ll drown with all my friends
let the sea+stank salty waves roll in
and wash me home again
i don’t need a new new england
bury me back where i’m from
i’ll go roving ’round the world
but bring my bones back when i’m done
and i’m done
trapped out on the open road
far away from all the cow paths that i’ve known
with six+hundred miles to go
until my toes can touch that frozen seaweed loam
that reminds me i can’t do this on my own
chorus
take me to the old atlantic
where i’ll drown with all my friends
let the sea+stank salty waves roll in
and wash me home again
i don’t need a new new england
bury me back where i’m from
i’ll go roaming ’round the world
but bring my bones back when i’m done
and i’m done
feel our fathers beneath in our feet
in the shameful shards of history that stain the streets
and the dirty water that we bleed
to cleanse the sins we cast upon a shining sea
until we find a way to finally make it free
chorus
take me to the old atlantic
where i’ll drown with all my friends
let the sea+stank salty waves roll in
and wash me home again
i don’t need a new new england
bury me back where i’m from
i’ll go roaming ’round the world
but bring my bones back when i’m done
and i’m done
oh, i know it’s home
with all its faults we’ve yet to own
shuck this oyster of a world
we’ve got all the sh+t we need to make a pearl
take me to the old atlantic
where i’ll drown with all my friends
let the sea+stank salty waves roll in
and wash me home again
i don’t need a new new england
bury me back where i’m from
i’ll go roving ’round the world
but bring my bones back when i’m done
and i’m done
