"Ocean" lyrics

He was a young man trying to understand
Carving a path
Trying not to look back
But there were times he couldn't resist
Torn by the fringes like a door without hinges
Plenty of rage
So hard to gage
Some days didn't want to exist
He knelt by the bed closed his eyes and said

I feel like an ocean looking up to the sky
Void of devotion taking no sides
Down in the darkness, the deepness, the abyss inside
I feel like an ocean looking up to the sky

Head down in the hallways
Not sure why he felt shame
What did he do
Why was he so moved by the path with the most resistance
Sang like a choir boy
Alone in the alley
Kicking up dirt to cover the hurt
Could he find the strength to go the distance

I feel like an ocean looking up to the sky
Void of devotion taking no sides
Down in the darkness, the deepness, the abyss inside
I feel like an ocean looking up to the sky

Now in his thirties he buries his worries In bottles of wine
Pretends to have a good time with the monster still living under his bed
He kisses her good night
Shuts off the light
Closes his eyes
Grips his hands tight
Whispers those words as he bows his head

I feel like an ocean looking up to the sky
Void of devotion taking no sides
Down in the darkness, the deepness, the abyss inside
I feel like an ocean looking up to the sky

I feel like an ocean looking up to the sky
Void of devotion taking no sides
Down in the darkness, the deepness, the abyss inside
I feel like an ocean looking up to the sky
