Ocean (Acoustic)

Reach out with my arms
Make out who you are
Pressure's been building up inside of me
For far too long
It's like a hurricane minus the destruction
It's like a piece of cake plus the complications
And I gotta get this thing off of my chest
It's for the best, oh

It's building up inside of me
It's something that I wanna do
But I don't have the courage to
Say it
It's surrounding me, it's surrounding me
All around me, all around me
And I have nowhere to go

I'm surrounded by the ocean
Nothing but the clear blue waters
I'm surrounded by the ocean
Nothing else to do but swim farther, yeah
I'm surrounded by the ocean
A beautiful prison
I'm surrounded by the ocean
This is how I feel when I have to say
I love you

Every night I recite these words to myself
I feel so confident that
I will surely do this thing right but
Whenever I approach you
It escapes my mind
It's like I do not know you when I
Try to say it, try to say it

It's building up inside of me
It's something that I wanna do
But I don't have the courage to
Say it, say it
It's surrounding me, it's surrounding me
All around me, all around me
And I have nowhere to go

I'm surrounded by the ocean
Nothing but the clear blue waters
Surrounded by the ocean
Nothing else to do but swim farther
Surrounded by the ocean
A beautiful prison
Surrounded by the ocean
This is how I feel when I have to say
I love you

And these three words go across my mind
Everyday
But they never seem to come out of my mouth
Sometimes I have to wonder, wonder
If it's meant to be, yeah
Because my swimming has got me nowhere
I'm about to drown right now
And I don't wanna die yet
I wanna say
I wanna say, oh

It's building up inside of me
This is something I wanna do
I don't have the courage to
It's surrounding me, it's surrounding me
All around me, all around me
Oh yeah

Surrounded by the ocean
Nothing but the clear blue waters
Surrounded by the ocean
Nothing else to do but swim farther
Surrounded by this beautiful prison, oh
Surrounded by the ocean
This how I feel when I have to say

The ocean, the ocean, the ocean, yeah
The ocean, the ocean, the ocean
Ohh, ohh
I love you
