The Ocean by Tinyhands Lyrics

The sea flat and black
The moon round and pale
The salt in the air
Stings on every inhale
You walk to the shore
Your feet touch the foam
Without looking back
You walk in alone

In the ocean, you were standing alone

The beat of the surf
The beat of the drum
The beat of your heart
They're all beating as one
The tide's coming in
But it's not here to stay
And when it rolls out
It will pull you away

In the ocean, you were drifting away
Did you ever wonder where you'd go?
When you abandoned land to join the undertow
You slid right in without a splash
You never left an epitaph
Your name is writ in water not in stone
I spent the morning waiting by the phone
The coastal wind came in and chilled me to the bone
Then I began to understand
I can't keep living on the land
I walked down to the seashore all alone

In the ocean, I'm standing alone
