Ocean

I swear the winter was warmer last year
But these days it seems we've got more things to fear
Yet somehow it's August in his arms

Sometimes I wonder just who I should blame
Would it be different if I was the same
Now that I've collected all these scars

He says "I've seen your face in the mirror
I've tasted the air that you breathe
So just close your eyes and lose yourself with me"

And he holds me like an ocean
And I just can't decide
Whether I should sink or swim
Or just drift with the tide

Can we sing to the moon like two wolves in the dark?
Like nothing can keep us from all that we are
Like we could just run and never look back

But we're not the first ones to follow this road
We're tracing the tracks of a future we've known
Passing burned bridges they've left on the way
He asks "are you with me?" and all I can say

Is that "I've seen your face in the mirror
I've tasted the air that you breathe
So if you look inside when I open my eyes
Could you tell me what you see?"

And he holds me like an ocean
And I just can't decide
Whether I should sink or swim
Or just drift with the tide
He holds me like a silent void
To sing me off to sleep
And I can't tell if I'm at the edge
Or already in too deep

I'm too far gone to surrender
There's too many moments that I can't remember
It's here in my head, it's under my skin
I see everything, everything
Everything's out in the open
And I'm out of breath
I'm living my life and it scares me to death
Cause I know we're not the only ones
But how can I turn back?

And he holds me like an ocean
And I just can't decide
Whether I should sink or swim
Or just drift with the tide
He holds me like a silent void
To sing me off to sleep
And I can't tell if I'm at the edge
Or already in too deep

And he holds me like an ocean
So far from the shore
And here in the dark with the waves overhead
I'm not afraid anymore
