This song is about you 'Cause I can't live without you When a song is about you Then you know you've got problems That you can choose There's a hole in my conscience There's a hole in my country Like a nose that keeps running Like a hose that won't stop flowing And I know that it's coming It's coming It's coming It's coming soon Here's why 'Cause you are the ocean And I'm good at drowning The morning will follow And I wont remember It feels like I've been here I've been here forever You should be looking out In the fall I get lonely In the winter I'm still lonely Come the knives of the springtime In the summer I go crazy 'Cause you are the ocean And I'm good at drowning The morning will follow And I wont remember It feels like I've been here I've been here forever You should be looking out
This album hits different after the first snowfall. Maybe because when i first listened on repeat it was winter but it has kind of a crisp, somber feel.
@@matthewfloyd2345 Good question! I think it would fit in a "downtown" sort of setting as a background/ambient track, perhaps in the same part of town where the Malkavians hang out. Toreador is a fine choice as well, though. Now I want to have a game session just to use it as a sound prop, lol :)
my first love really loved this song so he made me listen to it, and said how much the lyrics meant to him, and that i was his ocean. we had matching bios that said "cause you are the ocean-" and "-and im good at drowning". we broke up a few months ago, but this song still brings me a level of comfort that i once had when we were together. im glad that people have such an appreciation for this song, and i hope this song brings the same level of comfort as it did i.
