Mount Eerie - I Heard Whales (I Think) Lyrics




Walking slowly back and forth
On a bluff along the water
Seeing waves roll in the blowing
Far from any town or person
I swear
I promise
I heard, I did
I heard actual music riding on the wind
Barely there though it couldn't have been
I was definitely miles from any other person
And crashing water in my ears eclipsed everything.
It sounded like:

It could've been whales,
Deep, watching, doing their singing
It could've been some ancient shipwreck
Still out there howling
It could've been science
Just wind and waves and rocks and angles
Or my hallucination could have been the real thing
Something with no explanation
Heard, or not heard inside of everything
And there is music no on hears unless
They quiet all the way down
And lean way out over the edge
