San Pedro

Trip and fall into the sunken city Where the setting sun makes the world look pretty All the colors blend into a sand art dream And the crashing waves making your senses gleam Sitting still I feel the world turn 'round If I could scream out loud it wouldn't make a sound I am one with the sky, I am one with the Earth I am witness to the celestial birth You might know where you're coming from You might see a point past the setting sun But as you're standing on the hill gazing below You watch the lights go down over San Pedro Steam is rising from the orange glow As the refinery puts on its evening show There is beauty in the rust and the dust and the cracks I'm in awe of the toil and the broken backs Of all the bleeding hands that have shaped the land All the broken shells lying in the sand Or like the concrete slabs left to lie in the dirt Can we predict in time what will be of worth You might know where you're coming from You might see a point past the setting sun But as you're standing on the hill gazing below You watch the lights go down over San Pedro San Pedro San Pedro San Pedro You might know You might know You might know You might know You might know You might know You might know You might know You might know where you're coming from Yeah you might know where you're coming from Yeah you might know where you're coming from You might know You might know where you're coming from Yeah you might know where you're coming from Yeah you might know where you're coming from You might know You might know where you're coming from You might see a point past the setting sun But as you're standing on the hill gazing below You watch the lights go down over San Pedro You might know You might know You might know You might know
