(Chorus)
I see the ocean in your eyes. You hide in shadows, think that this will just be over. I see right through your disguise. You're inching forward and I promise I will listen. I see the ocean in your eyes. You hide in shadows, think that this will just be over. I see right through your disguise. You're inching forward, now lets open up the floodgates.

(Verse 1)
I can't speak now, this is really too much. When you find out all the pain is the color in your paintbrush. It's too quiet here. I can hide but I can't hear. When I think I'm speaking up, all my courage turns to fear. I play my therapist. And like a pill in a bottle, I can hold it in my hand but it's too damn hard to swallow. Like a child I ran in desperation from my problems. Till they all kept stacking up. Till too heavy I had fallen. It feels meaningless if I give into my anger. But still my ignorance turning bliss into a stranger. My accomplishments, pushing side to side with my mistakes I can't let go, I've all but lost my pride. No it can't rain. I'm just not ready. No I'm not in pain. It's just upsetting. When you thought you let it go, losing everyone you know. Chopped the tree that you let go. My old faith became my foe.

(Bridge)
I see the ocean in your eyes. You hide in shadows, think that this will just be over. I see right through your disguise. You're inching forward, now lets open up the floodgates.

(Verse 2)
I'm sorry mom, sorry sister, sorry dad. That I'm not the son or brother that can make this family proud. And I'm hoping you'll forgive me, but I have no regrets. All these things you see as curses have me feeling truly blessed. Now I'm being honest. Don't believe what I was promised when submerged within the water that was taught from all your prophets. I was only eight, how would I know. Predetermining a door I would learn to walk toward. That was not my decision. It was you who had that vision. And I finally broke my chains as I saw what I was missing. I'm not knocking your life choices. I just listen to the voices in my head, inside my heart, inside my soul and life rejoices. My old angels were my demons. On my fear they all were fiending. I tried to make it work but we came to no agreement. Don't think I have no faith I've just chosen my own side, and if that makes me a heathen then I guess this is goodbye.

(Chorus)
I see the ocean in your eyes. You hide in shadows, think that this will just be over. I see right through your disguise. You're inching forward and I promise I will listen. I see the ocean in your eyes. You hide in shadows, think that this will just be over. I see right through your disguise. You're inching forward, now lets open up the floodgates.

(Outro)
I see the ocean in your eyes. You hide in shadows, think that this will just be over. I see right through your disguise. You're inching forward, now lets open up the floodgates.
