The Ocean

(album: Alive - 2020)

No
I'm feeling it low
I'm feeling the safety
Of blue down below
And if you are sure
I'll see you before
The tide it will take me
Out to the floor

And oh boy, what you got it's stuck in my head
Messing with you has drained everything left
I tried to hold on to what I was missing with you in your bed

We gave it everything, I found it hopeless
Lighting up fires and means I put up with
To be a star in your eyes, I could dream but I think we're left here
I think we're left here

I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean
I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean

Better I didn't and better I don't
I felt the pressure and I felt the fold
I couldn't sleep with you there on your phone
I couldn't dream without losing you, though
I found it harder with water I'd sink
I found that loving is needed, I think
I found that using my voice doesn't work
Cause it hurts when I'm listening, listening

I don't know where my head's been lately
Ex-boyfriend I think that he hates me
A new one I thought he could save me
I'm drowning, won't you give me safety?
If months turn to years and I'm jaded
Play me this song, dedicate it
I'll move out too close to the ocean
Let go of the tears and devotion

I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean
I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean
I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean
I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean

We gave it everything
I found it so overwhelming
You took the weight off my back
And you stopped me from drowning

I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean
I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean
I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean
I'll give you my fears
I'll give you the ocean
