The Ocean Songtext
von Ultra-Violence

I was afraid of the ocean
So I dove in and drowned
Cause if you stand on the cliff and wait
No one will come around

You′re on your own
You're on your own
You′re on your own

Descending under the surface now
I see them gathering around
And I know
That all I've got is to sink or swim
Or they will drag me down


I'd rather hit the bottom than lie in between
Surrounded by my demons, lost into the abyss
Cause it′s only when you′re there, so distant from the top
That you will find the strength to push yourself back up
And I don't care if there′s no one up there waiting for me
Cause either way it's there that I′m going
It's buried under the water that I can finally breathe
Here the beating of my heart is deafening

It don′t matter what you've got
They're still coming back for more
Just believe me when I say
You′re on your own

For every time that I failed
And every choice that I made
Thought I could count on you
And I′m the one to blame
Now every choice that I'll make
And every time that I′ll fail
I will make it on my own

I was afraid of the ocean
So I dove in and drowned
Cause if you stand on the cliff and wait
No one will come around

I will make it on my own
