ocean. (quiet water) [song] - DOG DAYS ARE OVER

May 13, 2017
Verse: Mist, in my eyes Ice, heart melts, freeze Dive, into ocean spacious as skies Lie, sea turned bed if dived too deep Still profound, unexplored Wonder, how change will give more Chorus: Depth, ease into flow Deep inside, grow the more I know I’m an ocean, I’m an ocean Ocean... Verse: Blue, like sky after rain Beholds a fluid joy or pain Swim, connect and don’t drown Feel, don’t wanna le-e-e-et you Down, holding breath tight like dreams Fathom, beauty and curses beyond what it seems A nightmare so elegant, gambled with Chorus: Lost, pressure rising like Thoughts, swimming away towards the sun I’m an ocean, I’m an ocean Ocean... Bridge: Dive in me, When poems and songs are all my thoughts can be, Dive in me, Don’t drown, please just connect and feel my heartbeat Dive with me Please let me be An abstract clarity Could I be, One to soothe my identity/naivety? Outro: Soothe my identity I’m an ocean, oh an ocean. Dive in me, Explore deep blue emotions, Sensitivity Don’t die on me, Dive in me, Can I be just as focused and just as magnificent? Understand now: I’m an ocean, an ocean.. (quiet water) Verse: quiet water Feels like I’ve gotten another World away from the place I called home, The place where I wanted to explode, The place where all my thoughts hung like sheets to dry. Chorus: Quiet water, Find me another Sea to find refuge in, River to a new home, Ocean to drown broken art in my mind Whisper to me why I’m still here. Quiet water, Find me another Sea to find refuge in, River to a new home. Verse: quiet water Feels I’ve lost another World away from the place I called home, Places I wanted to explore, find more Places inside me I craved and implored. Chorus: (Quiet water, Find me another) Sea to find refuge in, River to a new home, Ocean to drown broken art in my mind Whisper to me why I’m still here.
