the ocean (i could die)

I could die if I don't get out of here
Sorry mum, you know I'd never do it
But it's felt hard

The city hates me
It gets darker every year
It's gonna eat me up
Or gonna leave a scar

I used to be creative
But living to survive doesn't leave room for that
I live to be naked
But I have to be at work in an hour

I forgot the ocean was there
When I became aware
She never left me then
And in my dreams I still breathe city air
When I wake up
Feel like I'm choking again

I run through fields now and fill my lungs to spare
With air tasting so sweet
My brain feels clean

I live to be creative
But living to survive didn't leave room for that
I'm feeling more elated
How can I ever go back

I forgot the ocean was there
When I became aware
She never left me then
And in my dreams I still breathe city air
When I wake up
Feel like I'm choking again

So I start running
Eyes wide open
I've been ghosting all my fears
The city really struck me coldy
I'm still warming up it's near
Waves keep crashing
Wind is howling
I can't be nothing but happy here
I'm still learning
Like flower's we're growing
My walls are breaking down these cliffs

I forgot the ocean was there
When I became aware
She never left me then
And in my dreams I still breathe city air
When I wake up
Feel like I'm choking again

Woo

I start running
Eyes wide open
I've been ghosting all my fears
The city really struck me coldy
I'm still warming up it's near
Waves keep crashing
Wind is howling
I can't be nothing but happy here
I'm still learning
Like flower's we're growing
