Terry Jacks - Concrete Sea lyrics

I heard some music being played today

I heard a song but the words were wrong

It doesn't matter to me anyway

Some people really don't care what they say

I started looking at the sky today

'Cause it's so deep and so far away

I've got too many things inside my head

I wish that I could be up there instead

(chorus)

No one was meant to be

Living here in this concrete sea

Everyone including me

Wishes that we could be set free

Then I looked into the ocean blue

It's so deep and it's so quiet too

There's just too many people everwhere

I wish that I was down there

(chorus)

No one was meant to be

Living here in this concrete sea

Everyone including me

Wishes that we could be set free

I heard a story being told today

About a man and how he got away

You got to leave the things you grow up for

So duck your head and swim for shore

(chorus)

No one was meant to be

Living here in this concrete sea

Everyone including me

Wishes that we could be set free
