about

Paulo's Rock - People Sounds

Song by Jordan Hill
Engineered and Produced by Mike Zaccaro

lyrics

Man I feel like a toy boat
Adrift in the ocean,
And I've been here so long.
Days like these are so empty--
Been waiting for something.
Paulo you're not alone.

But it occupies our time
And it fills our jugs with wine.

Paulo says he won't die here,
This merciless winter town--
Headlights covered in frost.
Says he'd like to break free yeah
And move to the west coast.
A place all smothered in sun.

But it takes up all our time
And it pacifies our minds.

But this rock is too heavy
To push up the mountainside.
But this rock is too heavy
To make the eternal climb.
Paulo's rock is too heavy
To push up the mountainside.
Paulo's rock is too heavvvy!

Man I feel like a satellite
Still stuck in this orbit path.
Was this really our choice?
Days like these are so empty--
Been waiting for something.
Paulo you're not alone.
