Ocean Lyrics

Sound asleep with my eyes open

Tell me why can't I breathe. Am I choking?

Maybe all that I need is to focus

But lately all that I see is the ocean

Drifting away on these difficult days

I'm needing a change, so I'll plan my escape

Cause it all seems the same need a different pace

I'm unlocking the cage, I can not be contained

In this desolate place

Watch me wither to waste

Can I find my own way?

Am I too far astray?

I'm needing a sense of direction

A feeling so lost can I see my reflection

It seems all the pages I turn end up empty

Is this the exception?

Sound asleep with my eyes open

Tell me why can't I breathe. Am I choking?

Maybe all that I need is to focus

But lately all that I see is the ocean

I'm finding no issue in drowning tonight

So I'll drink all my problems and swallow my pride

Till I'm feeling so numb and just wash in the tide

Just a castaway floating, this hope will subside

Sound asleep with my eyes open

Tell me why can't I breathe. Am I choking?

Maybe all that I need is to focus

But lately all that I see is the ocean
