The Ocean
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I feel heavy, I feel weighted
I feel hungry, I feel wasted (oh)
I can't put my finger on my feelings
Put my ear up to the ceiling
Where is that coming from?
Where are you coming from?
I'm just waiting for the walls of my insides
To come clean
I've been praying for the day that my spirit
Is finally free
Some days it feels like the ocean
Lies inside of me
Lies inside of me
And I feel paralysed, been cut down to size
I hardly have the strength, to open up my eyes
Coz I am swollen,
And this has stolen my sanity
Well it's hard to see beyond this
When it's fighting against me
I'm just waiting for the walls of my insides
To come clean
I've been praying for the day that my spirit
Is finally free
Some days it feels like the ocean
Lies inside of me
Lies inside of me
The waves crash in, the tide rolls out
I stand before, my weakness now
You took my faith and cut me down
The ocean it lies, it lies inside me now
The ocean!
The ocean!
I'm just waiting for the walls of my insides
To come clean
I've been praying for the day that my spirit
I'm just waiting for the walls of my insides
To come clean
I've been praying for the day that my spirit
Is finally free
Some days it feels like the ocean
Lies inside of me
Lies inside of me
