On the edge of the surf line where the gulls still stand you can mark a box in sand with a weathered hand But the tide keeps writing its own little rules what you lock today walks out tomorrow, cool Eggs in the fence look safe for a while then the shells crack open and the young ones file Little feet in the dune grass find a wider road so the line has to move when the world has showed We can’t freeze the coast like it’s nailed in place every season shifts the map every pulse has space Keep the nest, keep the path let the shoreline breathe draw it fresh, draw it fair so both sides can leave Throw the ropes up try to guard the perimeter Dune buggies rollin' pushin' to the limiter Eggs in the fence but the babies gonna roam Gotta shift the boundaries need a dynamic zone! Throw the ropes up try to guard the perimeter Dune buggies rollin' pushin' to the limiter Eggs in the fence but the babies gonna roam Gotta shift the boundaries need a dynamic zone! At Oceano dawn you can hear both sides one side checks the nests one side wants the rides Ruts in the soft sand fear in the air everybody says it's theirs when the ground won’t care The birds need quiet the wheels need room somebody’s got to think past the boom and zoom Not a hard iron line that breaks with the swell but a living border that can change as well Leave room for the hatchlings leave room for the crowd let the rules bend smart not just loud When the wind redraws what the fence should be we can move with the coast and still let it be Throw the ropes up try to guard the perimeter Dune buggies rollin' pushin' to the limiter Eggs in the fence but the babies gonna roam Gotta shift the boundaries need a dynamic zone! Throw the ropes up try to guard the perimeter Dune buggies rollin' pushin' to the limiter Eggs in the fence but the babies gonna roam Gotta shift the boundaries need a dynamic zone! One line for the nest one line for the track if the sand drifts forward we adjust it back Compromise ain't weakness it's how coasts survive hold the hatch, hold the fun keep the whole thing alive Throw the ropes up try to guard the perimeter Dune buggies rollin' pushin' to the limiter Eggs in the fence but the babies gonna roam Gotta shift the boundaries need a dynamic zone! Throw the ropes up try to guard the perimeter Dune buggies rollin' pushin' to the limiter Eggs in the fence but the babies gonna roam Gotta shift the boundaries need a dynamic zone!
