Drop in the Ocean

You're deep inside your fortress of solitude

Doin' what you always do…

You say "who goes there? Is it friend or foe?"

But nobody is listening to you

You pass judgment on the outside world

With your electronic force field on…

And when you're out there mixing with the enemy

You'll never crumble… boy you're so humble!

You got the thickest hide to keep the truth inside

Yeah all that crippled emotion

Can't wait to see your eyes the day you realize

It took a slip of the tongue

Now you're a drop in the ocean

You rehearse your sentences before you speak

Every word is like an act of war

You're always counting other peoples' mistakes

Yeah it's just your way of keeping score

You're always measuring the size of yourself

Against the people you can't control

They're always the ones you depend on most

They'll never know you - no one could ever show you

But you're comin' down to size

So ride them lows and highs

Out on a sea of emotion

Can't wait to see your eyes the day you realize

It took a slip of the tongue

Now you're a drop in the ocean

But there's something on your mind

It gets you every time

You set your ego in motion

Oh you're comin' down to size

So ride them lows and highs

You're ridin' on a sea of emotion

Can't wait to see your eyes

The day you realize yeah

It took a slip of the tongue

Now you're a drop in the ocean
