Lyrics Being As An Ocean

Being As An Ocean

Play Pretend

Our lives, like flowing water, forever thrown into stages of change

The river must duel the rapids before it can rest in the lake

Perceptions are conflicted, we waste time fretting what could be

The first step to understanding madness:

Identify the cures we seek

We're sinking into nothing, but we can feel it all the way down

Giving up on hoping that our feet will ever hit the ground

We bite our tongues in the face of god

Turn nothing into something

We're not dead yet

We play pretend

Look around and see the glory

Feel the breeze caress your skin

We have to come to terms with ourselves

Real knowledge blooms from within

Our strength is found in weakness

Push away the thoughts of disgrace

Let's all refuse restriction

(Find courage)

We're sinking into nothing, but we can feel it all the way down

Giving up on hoping that our feet will ever hit the ground

We bite our tongues in the face of god

Turn nothing into something

We're not dead yet

We play pretend

(I'm too far gone for you to bring me back)

(I'm too far gone for you to bring me back)

(We're sinking into nothing, but we can feel it all the way down)

Giving up on hoping that our feet will ever hit the ground

We bite our tongues in the face of god

Turn nothing into something

We're not dead yet

We play pretend

We play pretend

We play pretend
