The radio stopped working in the car today
For the first time in years, I had time to think
About my life, about my job, about it all
And I drove until I reached the sea

Drove in silence as the light began to fade
Thought about you and the choices that I made
I left my home, I left my town, I left it all
And drove and still it followed me

Still it followed me
Still it followed me
Still it followed me

Drove until I reached the sea

And at the edge to where the ocean meets the land
I placed my shoes together neatly on the sand
I left my shirt, I left my tie, I left it all
And walked until it swallowed me

This is the sound of a business man
Even though he knew it wasn't planned
I don't know, I'm gonna make my stand
I drove until I reached the sea

Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me
Black cloud follows me

(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me
(In the Ocean) Black cloud follows me

In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
In the Ocean
It holds me down
