lyrics

It's the glare off the ocean
and mental commotion
and forgetting suntan lotion in the car

It's a blistering sunburn
watching a sundial turn
walking with the waves and not knowing where you are

Perpetual motion
Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall
Perpetual motion
Let it fall
Perpetual motion
Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall
Perpetual motion
Let it fall

It's catching buses to see him
and wanting to leave him
but it's never really worth it any given day

It's getting tunnel vision
and putting off decisions
forgetting what it was that you wanted anyway

Perpetual motion
Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall
Perpetual motion
Let it fall
Perpetual motion
Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall
Perpetual motion
Let it fall

It's broken sea shells, breaking waves
sandy winds on roads unpaved
sandal blisters, whispered dares
salty food and salty air
swinging hammocks, swaying trees
sweet and spare as summer breeze
sleep till two and fight till dawn
now it's here and now it's gone

Perpetual motion
Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall
Perpetual motion
Let it fall
Perpetual motion
Let it fall, let it fall, let it fall
Perpetual motion
Let it fall
