Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The lyrics to Casket Lottery's song "Ocean" are complex and multi-layered, with several different possible interpretations. At its core, the song seems to be about a relationship that is fraught with difficulty and conflict, but also intense passion and desire. The singer explicitly states that they want to drown in the ocean, which can be interpreted as a metaphor for the intensity of their emotions and the all-consuming nature of their love. However, they also encourage their partner to "sink" and explore the depths of the ocean, suggesting there is an element of danger and risk in the relationship. The singer also acknowledges their own flaws and darkness, describing themselves as a devil who will "fuck" their partner.
The chorus of the song is particularly powerful, with the repeated phrase "if you're sick of being deep" suggesting that the relationship is a way for both parties to escape from something or someone. The ocean can be seen as a symbol of freedom and possibility, where anything is possible and anything can be overcome. However, it is also a threatening and unpredictable force, and the singer's desire to drown suggests that they are willing to risk everything for the sake of their love.
Line by Line Meaning
Maybe you can be my ocean.
I am open to the idea of you being everything to me, like the vast ocean.
But keep in mind, darling I'd prefer to drown.
I would rather be consumed by the overwhelming feeling of being with you, even if it is ultimately destructive.
So dream of me and I will be the devil fucking you.
Think of me in your subconscious and I will be the dark, all-consuming desire fulfilling your every need.
You know me...i hope you're sick of being deep.
You know my true nature and I hope you are tired of the emotional and psychological depth that comes with being close to me.
I can't stand being at the bottom of this sea without you. please sink.
I cannot bear the loneliness and pain of being without you. Please come to me, even if it leads to our mutual destruction.
Cause you can be anything here. you can be a dream, you can be my angel in the sea.
With me, you have the freedom to be anything you want - a fantasy, a savior, anything that brings us closer together.
If you're sick of being deep.
If you are tired of the emotional depths and complexities of our relationship.
