lyrics
My head can’t stay above the water.
But then I never need to breathe.
Adrift in dangers all aquatic,
And I can’t leave.
My arms can’t stay above the ocean.
I guess I never learned to swim.
Eroded by the water’s motion
As I’m worn thin.
In a locked box
In the ocean.
Waves wash over me.
I don’t talk much,
But I’ve spoken.
Let the waves say what they will.
I sense some danger in the water,
I feel it biting at my feet.
A sense of certain doom surrounds me.
And it runs deep.
The ocean’s water swells around me.
And rainclouds gather overhead.
Amid the ever-growing ocean,
And the seabed.
In a locked box
In the ocean.
Waves wash over me.
I don’t talk much,
But I’ve spoken.
Let the waves say what they will.
This world of never-ending water.
The seas of ever-growing fear.
My footing never felt too stable,
Yet I stand here.
In a locked box
In the ocean.
Waves wash over me.
I don’t talk much,
But I’ve spoken.
Let the waves say what they will
About me,
About meee
About me
About meee
About me.
But then I never need to breathe.
Adrift in dangers all aquatic,
And I can’t leave.
My arms can’t stay above the ocean.
I guess I never learned to swim.
Eroded by the water’s motion
As I’m worn thin.
In a locked box
In the ocean.
Waves wash over me.
I don’t talk much,
But I’ve spoken.
Let the waves say what they will.
I sense some danger in the water,
I feel it biting at my feet.
A sense of certain doom surrounds me.
And it runs deep.
The ocean’s water swells around me.
And rainclouds gather overhead.
Amid the ever-growing ocean,
And the seabed.
In a locked box
In the ocean.
Waves wash over me.
I don’t talk much,
But I’ve spoken.
Let the waves say what they will.
This world of never-ending water.
The seas of ever-growing fear.
My footing never felt too stable,
Yet I stand here.
In a locked box
In the ocean.
Waves wash over me.
I don’t talk much,
But I’ve spoken.
Let the waves say what they will
About me,
About meee
About me
About meee
About me.
