lyrics

I was riding northwards
Right into the ocean
I was casting my nets
Straight into the sea
I was driven on by
Pieces of the ocean
I was carried on
By the ocean under me

I was out of my depth
Miles from the shoreline
I was treading water
That carried me free
I was dragged along by
Currents underwater
I was pulled away
By the ocean in me

Something changed
In my heart that day
Froze my limbs
And ignored my brain

I was growing bolder
Floating ever northwards, I
Left behind my family
To test my sanity
I was driven onto
An island in the water
Where I could spend eternity
Floating in the sea

When my feet they struck the
Floor of the ocean
They set my thoughts alight
Like a candle in the deep
Weights around my ankles
Shackled me to shorelines
I’ll stand and watch the water
And dream about the sea

Something changed
In my heart that day
Froze my limbs
And ignored my brain
