From the City to the Ocean Songtext
von Your Favorite Enemies

From the city to the ocean
Between the grief, and your sorrow
From the city to the ocean
From the city to the ocean
Heard you calling, heard you calling
From the city to the ocean

From the city to the ocean
Between the lands, my empire
From the city to the ocean

From the city to the ocean
Dusty valley, silver plateau
From the city to the ocean
From the city to the ocean

From the city to the ocean
Between the tears and your halo
From the city to the ocean

From the city to the ocean
I heard you calling, heard you crying
From the city to the ocean


From the city to the ocean
Between the waves, raging fire
From the city to the ocean

From the city to the ocean
Shiny valley, golden plateau
From the city to the ocean
From the city to the ocean

Your shadow′s on the edge of water

From the city to the ocean
Between the fear and its tantrum
From the city to the ocean
From the city to the ocean

From the city to the ocean
I felt your whispers, you kept my secrets
From the city to the ocean
From the city to the ocean

From the city to the ocean
Between your words, my desires
From the city to the ocean
From the city to the ocean


From the city to the ocean
Faded valley, long gone plateau
From the city to the ocean
From the city to the ocean

You're calling me in, you′re calling me out, calling me in
From the city to the ocean, the ocean
You're calling me in, you're calling me out, calling me in
From the city to the ocean, the ocean

Your shadow′s on the edge of water

Between the lies and my hideouts
Between the tides, mourning prayers

Illusion′s a ghost, floating over heads
Shivering whispers and sacred make-believes
Your wave is a smile flickering sorrows
As we're turning fog into daydream
For lack of better tomorrows

Your shadow′s on the edge of water

Between the lands, my empire
Between the waves, raging fire

And If I should be there tomorrow
Whatever the words I can spit out
I'll tear my curtain down
For anyone to share
As long as it looks real
I will confess that it hurts
As if I truly cared

And If I should be there tomorrow
And If I should be there tomorrow
And If I should be there tomorrow
And If I should be there tomorrow, tomorrow

And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
If I should be there, if I should be there

For every time I begged you to let me in
Every night I found myself at your feet,
And took another one of your strokes...
I′ve learned to fake a smile and lie as you may please
As my soul turned black and grey
Another bleached out oblivion
November's calling in
Dressed up with the colors I′ve learned to despise
From the city to the ocean

And if I should be there tomorrow
And if I should be there tomorrow
And if I should be there, and if I should be there
Tomorrow, tomorrow
And if I should be there, and if I should be there
Tomorrow, tomorrow

And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
If I should be there, if I should be there

The ocean might look too cold
For my feet to move back to the shore
But I'll let go to the sounds
For waves to take away my sorrows
And from the city to the ocean
Water will heal, and I'll be free...
As there was no tomorrow...
From the city to the ocean

And If I should be there tomorrow
Whatever the words I can spit out
I′ll tear my curtain down
For anyone to share
As long as it looks real
I will confess that it hurts
As if I truly cared

And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on, and on
And on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on
If I should be there, if I should be there

From the city to the ocean
Close to your drifting sea shore
I′ll lose myself into the lights
Fall for a language I can't speak
Drunk my heart with hundred scents
My spirit graced from gravity

From gravity

From the city to the ocean
