Breath of the Ocean Lyrics

It began as a whisper

Then a song

A dreaded lamentation

Cacophony of all of my wrongs

The allure of the deep

The only respite I receive

The silence surrounds me

As I slip under the surface

Beginning to breathe

Choking as the silence surrounds me

Leadened I am slipping away

Carried beneath the waves

I ascend

What trick is at play

Pulled up to the surface the cacophony remains

Whos hand in stay of execution must I lay blame

I didn't ask for this

You see yourself a savior

I see my ended bliss

I want no resting place

No burial ground

Only to slip below and never be found

My memories are pain

No will to persist

Ashore again

Breath of life I must resist

I long

For the silence

Will you follow me down

Plunging to the depths below

Its icy cold is all I ever wish to know

Silence as I inhale the ocean

As the pressure builds my frame begins to fold

The pressures build

Eyes bulge under the weight that surrounds me

My lungs now filled

Gracious acceptance of what I could never be

I've no need for this earthly life

Renounced, resigned

All that's required is to end this strife

I have finally reached my closing divine

With a deep breath of the ocean

I heave a sigh of relief

The silence surrounds me

The allure of the deep
