Blue October - Into the Ocean

I’m just a normal boy that sank when I fell overboard..
My ship would leave the country, but I’d rather swim ashore
without a life that’s sadly stuck again;
wish I was much more masculine.. maybe then I could learn to swim like fourteen miles away..

Now floating up and down, I spin, colliding into sound..
like whales beneath me diving down..
I’m sinking to the bottom of my
everything that freaks me out..
The lighthouse beam has just run out..
I’m cold as cold as cold can be… be.

I want to swim away but don’t know how..
Sometimes it feels just like I’m falling in the ocean.
Let the waves up take me down,
let the hurricane set in motion.. yea.
Let the rain of what I feel right now, come down.. (goodbye…)
Let the rain come down (goodbye…).

Where is the coastguard?
I keep looking each direction for a spotlight; give me something;
I need something for protection..
Maybe flotsam junk will do just fine..
the jetsum sunk, I’m left behind;
I’m treading for my life, believe me (how can I keep up this breathing)?

Not knowing how to think, I scream aloud, begin to sink..
My legs and arms are broken down with envy for the solid ground.
I’m reaching for the life within me..
How can one man stop his ending?
I thought of just your face,.. relaxed, and floated into space.

I want to swim away but don’t know how..
sometimes it feels just like I’m falling in the ocean.
Let the waves up take me down.
Let the hurricanes set in motion, yea.
Let the rain of what I feel right now, come down.
Let the rain come down..

Now waking to the sun, I calculate what I had done,
like jumping from the bow, yeah, just to prove that I knew how, yeah..
It’s midnight’s late reminder of the loss of her, the one I love;
my will to quickly end it all, sat front row in my need to fall——into the ocean, end it all,
into the ocean, end it all,
into the ocean, end it all,
into the ocean…end it all.

.... (goodbye)

I want to swim away but don’t know how..
sometimes it feels just like I’m falling in the ocean.
Let the waves up take me down,
let the hurricane set in motion, yeah.
Let the rain of what I feel right now, come down.
Let the rain come down.

Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
(into space)
into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)...
(I thought of just your face)
into the ocean end it all…

Very well done.
Its a relief to find a page with lyrics that i agree with 100%. I know what i hear and am glad to confirm it. You might be surprised how many sites just don’t have complete and accurate lyrics,

Thanks

Thanks Jeremy,
I type the lyrics as I listen to each song.. I think many places cut and paste… I don’t always get the songs right, but they do tend to all be strictly what I hear, as much as I can manage.

In todays world many speak of love and how wonderful it is, but here’s a song that tells of the loss. Not only are the lyrics great! They tell a story, in the use of a meataphor, how the loss is so unbearable it feels as if you drown. thats the truth. thank you!
