Almost Atlantic
And it caught me off guard
The way things that I was so sure of simply crumbled away
I woke up with winter inside of bones
I'd never been so sure of anything
You were the ocean, I was the sand beneath your waves
And all the things that pushed us together
Are all the things that pulled us apart
But I figure this is best
Considering my intentions
Just to chase, chase, chase until I'm satisfied
Then throw you away
You were the ocean. I was the sand beneath your waves
Everything I ever was ultimately added up to so much less than I had ever hoped for
I am the furthest thing away from what you see in me
But there have been times when there was no difference between you and I
I wondered what sort of lesson was built in to all of this
What should I take away?
Learning from this sort of thing isn't easy when
Your solutions are mistakes
You were the ocean. I was the sand beneath your waves
Everything I ever was ultimately added up to so much less than I had ever hoped for
I am the furthest thing away from what you see in me
But there have been times when there was no difference between you and I
And you said all I ever do is run away
I am the ocean. You are the sand beneath my waves
Everything I ever was ultimately added up to so much less than I had ever hoped for
I am the furthest thing away from what you see in me
But there have been times when there was no difference between you and I
I am the ocean
You are the sand beneath my waves
