Into The Ocean Lyrics

Artist: Blue October
Album: Foiled

I'm just a normal boy
That sank when I fell overboard
My ship would leave the country
But I'd rather swim ashore

Without a life vest, I'd be stuck again
Wish I was much more masculine
Maybe then I could learn to swim
Like 'fourteen miles away'

Now floating up and down
I spin, colliding into sound
Like whales beneath me diving down
I'm sinking to the bottom of my
Everything that freaks me out
The lighthouse beam has just run out
I'm cold as cold as cold can be
be

I want to swim away but don't know how
Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean
Let the waves up take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion
Let the rain of what I feel right now...come down
Let the rain come down

Where is the coastguard
I keep looking each direction
For a spotlight, give me something
I need something for protection
Maybe flotsam junk will do just fine
The jetsam sunk, I'm left behind
I'm treading for my life believe me
(How can I keep up this breathing)

Not knowing how to think
I scream aloud, begin to sink
My legs and arms are broken down
With envy for the solid ground
I'm reaching for the life within me
How can one man stop his ending
I thought of just your face
Relaxed, and floated into space

I want to swim away but don't know how
Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean
Let the waves up take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion
Let the rain of what I feel right now...come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down

Now waking to the sun
I calculate what I had done
Like jumping from the bow (yeah)
Just to prove I knew how (yeah)
It's midnight's late reminder of
The loss of her, the one I love
My will to quickly end it all
So thought no end my need to fall

Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
into the ocean...end it all

[Zayra]
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)

I want to swim away but don't know how
Sometimes it feels just like I'm falling in the ocean
Let the waves up take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion (yeah)
Let the rain of what I feel right now...come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down

Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
(In to space)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
(I thought of just your face)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)

floatsam is stuff that washes up onto the ocean like plank wood or an old boot or a tier something like that. jetsam is the stuff that comes out of the jets on a motorboat. it means anything that is boyant enough to float will do just fine so he can get back to shore. it's a song about losing a loved one and how he badly wants to be with her but he can't. as he sits there dying away he realizes that it's not death he wants it's life he wants back, her life. he fights with his brain, torn between killing himself or living on. in the end he decides to instead of kill himsdelf let her go. he lets the memory of her go into the ocean. it's a beautiful love story about life and the truth of losing a loved one. it takes a lot to live after someone dies and it takes even more to let go of them when you know you have to realize there gone. I deicate this song to Nat and Kyle. I must say to Nat I'm so proud of you, and Kyle you are missed.
WWKWD!

Lol @Jess flotsam is all the stuff leftover from a shipwreck (interesting fact, it was still considered the property of the the ship owner, and taking it was a crime). Jetsam, However, was the goods that were jettisoned from the boat during a storm or other emergency, according to the old laws it was considered "voluntarily discarded", and was "finders keepers".
