Drive to the Ocean Lyrics

I'll drive through the mountains
The crumbling west
I'll sing like the whales
Before man was a pest
Radio transistor
My friend by my side
I'll drive to the ocean
The ocean, I'll drive

We stand at the water
The wind and the sun
Where all of God's creatures
Are gathered as one
Surfacing, crowning
We blast right through
Histories, and riches, and residue

We came to explore
Just look where that got us
Look where that got us

We've been here before
Radio transistor, my friend
Radio, love me
Radio, sand
Radio, the ocean
Radio, the end

Radio, love me
Radio, sand
Radio, the ocean
Radio, the end

Radio, love me
Radio, sand
Radio, the ocean
Radio, the end

Radio, love me
Radio, the sand
Radio, the ocean
Radio, the end

Cover art for Drive to the Ocean lyrics by Michael Stipe

I think this has to do with man's indifference towards the past. Furthermore, man's irrevocable resolve in trudging forward haphazardly, while leaving behind most of natures beauty, history & the basic foundation we were earthed from.
