Swallowed up by the Ocean - Billy Talent

We spent a life together

That should have lasted forever

But now it’s time to sail on

So take this anchor from my heart

So we can finally drift apart

Before we drown in sorrow

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

I gave you sanctuary

Under the sun we lived carefree

I tried so hard to love you

But then you turned your back on me

Your good intentions turned to greed

And now it’s good to know that you have been

Swallowed up by the ocean

Swallowed up by the ocean

Swallowed up by the ocean

Swallowed up by the ocean

Swallowed up

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

The bluest skies turned into grey

Through tortured eyes I watched you change

Our paradise went up in flames

And though I cried a thousand times

You didn’t hear the rising tide

There’s nowhere left to hide since you have been

Your devastation took its toll

As the waves came crashing to the coast

This sinking ship I’m taking back from your control

It felt so good to cross my arms

And renounce my faith in mankind

How could you ever be so blind

To think that you’d survive?

Swallowed up by the ocean

Swallowed up by the ocean

I hope you know that nothing matters now that you have been

Swallowed up by the ocean

Swallowed up by the ocean

I hope you know this ship has finally come to rest

I hope you know this ship has finally come to rest

I hope you know some day this ship will be your end
