Ocean
Gorky Park (Парк Горького) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take me back to see the ocean
Bearing sound' o' waves devotion
Wash away the words corrosion
That we left behind

Clean me up with wind and water
I'm your sun and you're my daughter
I won't let this moment slaughtered
In my burning mind

And when I'm lost inside the walls
I'd live this moment more and more
So blind I can't help it
Lost inside the walls
I need this moment more and more
So blind I can't help it

Searching ways for understanding
I would lose my boat stranded
Now I know I was defending
Castle on a sand

Take me back to see the ocean
City's draining my emotions




Let me have a healing potion
Sipping off your hands

Overall Meaning

The song "Ocean" by Gorky Park (Парк Горького) is a heartfelt and poetic plea to return to the natural world and leave behind the "corrosion" of words and emotions that have accumulated over time. The first stanza speaks of a desire to be cleansed by the ocean, with its waves representing a powerful devotion that can erase the past. The singer, who is referred to as "your sun," implores the listener, who is metaphorically a daughter, to join him in this moment of cleansing and renewal, promising not to let it be ruined by any negative thoughts or feelings.


The second stanza expands on the theme of being lost, both physically and emotionally. The singer seeks understanding and connection, but fears that he is adrift like a boat that has run aground. However, he ultimately finds solace in the idea of his life as a "castle on a sand," implying that even though everything may be ephemeral, it is still worth fighting for. The final lines of the song return to the image of the ocean as a healing potion, with the listener offering the singer a sip from their hands.
