[Verse 1]
I've been so gone, thinking for so long
That I would find my peace of mind, yeah, aye
Drifting thoughts and the swelling moments
That make my madness multiply
[Pre-Chorus]
I watch the water move
So violent and so smooth
Somehow it treats them both the same
I'm in a manic mood
I see myself in you
I hear your silence call my name (Name, ah, name)
I hear your silence call my name
[Chorus]
Let the wave crash over my head and pull me deeper
Let the water fill my lungs, make me stay forever young
Let the ocean break all my bones and pull me under
If the worst is yet to come, let me be forever young
[Verse 2]
My neurosis is near psychosis
It makes me feel like I'm alright
But when I focus in underneath my skin
All I crave is cyanide (Does it, does it)
[Pre-Chorus]
I watch the water move
So violent and so smooth
Somehow it treats them both the same (Does it, does it)
I'm in a manic mood
I see myself in you
I hear your silence call my name (Name, name, name)
[Chorus]
Let the wave crash over my head and pull me deeper
Let the water fill my lungs, make me stay forever young
Let the ocean break all my bones and pull me under
If the worst is yet to come, let me be forever young
[Bridge]
(Oh, I feel it taking over me
Oh, washing my sins out as she bleeds
Oh, come flood my airways, help me breathe
Oh, I'm done with waiting to be free
I'm done with waiting to be free)
[Chorus]
Let the wave crash over my head and pull me deeper
Let the water fill my lungs, make me stay forever young
Let the ocean break all my bones and pull me under
If the worst is yet to come, let me be forever young
[Outro]
(Let me, let me, let me)
Let me be forever young
(Let me, let me, let me)
Let me be forever young
(Let me, let me, let me)
Let me be forever young

“ocean waves” is about giving in to your feelings and letting things go for the sake of your own happiness. We started with the ocean because it's full of mystery and darkness, which I love, so it all just comes together to give you a song that can turn that dark place into something of beauty.
