We can control the medium
We can control the context, the presentation
Well, is there anybody on the receiving end
Reaching out for some kind of connection?
Come on and wash these shores away
Come on and wash these shores away
I’m looking for the crest
Looking for the crest of a new wave
We can be the bands we want to hear
We can define our own generation
Well, is there anybody on the receiving ends?
Are you ready to brave new directions?
Come on and wash these shores away
Come on and wash these shores away
I’m looking for the crest
Looking for the crest of a new wave
Let breathe new dawn – this art is dead
No sense of original thought in the mainstream
So, is there anybody on the receiving ends?
We can eclipse all that came before us
Come on and wash these shores away
Come on and wash these shores away
I’m looking for the crest
Looking for the crest of a new wave
