Lyrics
I once lost a love to the oceans of my mind
At a moments notice the storm came
In which I was overthinking things
And I didn't realize I was overthinking her
I once lost a love to the oceans of my mind
I became influenced by what others were telling me
About the current situation
but the situation was that I love her
But I once lost a love to the oceans of my mind
At sea we dived deep into our love
Understanding the catacombs of our hearts
I slowly started to degrade as human being
As I could not understand her biology
I once lost a love to the oceans of my mind
We were at sea fishing for thoughts and fishing for Jesus
But I was in turn the one that could not walk on water
I once lost a love to the oceans of my mind
It was pacific you see
But it was not the kind of Indian spice
Trying to find the tastiness of our love
But I was rather Atlantic in my approach
Sometimes we were polar differences
So I began to drown like iceberg in a very titanic fashion.
I once lost a love to the oceans of my mind.
I loved her dearly
But what was happening outside has influenced my mind
Like there was a virus that began to infest within me
And people were telling me
"She doesn't really love you the way you love her"
"She doesn't really wanna to be with you"
But meanwhile she did.
And like the poison began to corrode the soil.
And The soil began to die.
Then the plants would not grow
And the people would not eat
And the land was forgone
And the country fell to poverty.
And this was my nation that she had none left.
I once lost a love to the oceans of my mind.
I sank and swam deeply
Is if looking for somethig I could not find.
Trying to hold her hand one more time
Trying to see her hair blow in the wind once more.
Trying to share that 12 o'clock lunch on time every day again.
But now I'm doing it all by myself.
I once lost a love to the oceans of my mind.
to the oceans of my mind.
to the oceans of my mind.
