OCEANDVST’s journey begins in the middle of 2017 in Thessaloniki, Greece. They burst onto the scene with their self-released ep called “Escape Rovte” and they started gaining a remarkable fan base from their very beginning. The release of “Escape Rovte” was followed by two music videos and one lyric video which became unexpectedly popular in a very short time, while in 2019 was released the single “Isn’t Love Supposed to Be a Good Thing?” which marked the end of a big chapter. At the end of 2019, the band moved on in a new era with a fresh line-up and more determined than ever to turn their goals and dreams into reality! This new era begins with the release of the single “Nightmare (Halsey cover)”, which reached the number 1 song for four weeks straight on 1055 rock radio.
Their sound varies between rock, punk and alternative sounds with bands like My Chemical Romance, Tonight Alive, Sum 41, Halsey, and Paramore being some of their influences. What characterizes them the most is their charismatic singer with her warm and colorful voice and the emotional intensity of their songs. Their live shows combine the storytelling of deeply personal stories with a punk based attitude, which instantly puts the audience into the band's shoes
Set Me Free
Oceandvst Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With all these fears that conquered me
Will I make it out alive,
With all these feelings I defy?
Some words don't fade away
You thought you′ll escape
But you won't
Till you face yourself
Doesn′t matter for you?
I′m not the one who needs a change
I just need to be set free
And all this rage that I feel
Hopefully it's a way for me to heal
I have this picture of you in my head
It used to be the best I had
But now I hate it and you
Oh, you don′t even care, do you?
You keep in saying for me
How thoughtless I've been all these days
But stop justifying yourself
You know that the truth will come out in the end
Some words don′t fade away
You thought you'll escape
But you won′t
'Till you face yourself
All these shit we've been through
Doesn′t matter for you?
I′m not the one who needs a change
I just need to be set free
And all this rage that I feel
Hopefully it's a way for me to heal
I have this picture of you in my head
It used to be the best I had
But now I hate it and you
Oh, you don′t even care, do you?
You don't even care
I have this picture of you in my head
It used to be the best I had
But you don′t even care
I'm not the one who needs a change
I just need to be set free
And all this rage that I feel
Hopefully it′s a way for me to heal
I have this picture of you in my head
It used to be the best I had
But now I hate it and you
Oh, you don't even care, do you?
The lyrics to Oceandvst's song Set Me Free are a powerful expression of the singer's struggle with self-identity and the emotional toll of a relationship gone sour. The opening lines suggest a sense of confusion and desperation as the singer asks, "I truly don’t know who I am/With all these fears that conquered me/Will I make it out alive?" This sense of uncertainty persists throughout the song, as the singer wrestles with the conflicting feelings of anger, love, and betrayal that come with a broken relationship.
The chorus, "I’m not the one who needs a change/I just need to be set free/And all this rage that I feel/Hopefully it's a way for me to heal," captures the essence of the singer’s struggle to find self-acceptance and healing. The singer recognizes that they are not the problem and that they do not need to change in order to find validation or happiness. Instead, they simply crave the freedom to move on from the pain and to find a way to heal from the emotional wounds that have been inflicted upon them.
The final lines of the song further highlight the theme of emotional detachment and indifference, as the singer realizes that the person they once loved and cherished no longer cares about them or their feelings. This realization is a painful one, but it ultimately reinforces the singer's resolve to free themselves from the burdens of the past and to move forward into a brighter future.
Line by Line Meaning
I truly don't know who I am
I'm struggling to understand my identity
With all these fears that conquered me
My fears have consumed me
Will I make it out alive,
I'm questioning if I'll survive
With all these feelings I defy?
I'm struggling to understand and confront my emotions
Some words don't fade away
Some things said can have a lasting impact
You thought you'll escape
You believed you could avoid the consequences
But you won't
But running away won't work
Till you face yourself
Until you confront the truth about yourself
All these sh*t we've been through
All the difficult experiences we've shared
Doesn't matter for you?
Do they not have any value to you?
I'm not the one who needs a change
I'm content with who I am
I just need to be set free
I need to be liberated from my struggles
And all this rage that I feel
The anger I have inside
Hopefully it's a way for me to heal
Maybe this anger can help me find peace
I have this picture of you in my head
I have a memory of you that I can't forget
It used to be the best I had
This memory used to bring me joy
But now I hate it and you
But now it only causes pain and resentment towards you
Oh, you don't even care, do you?
You don't seem to have any concern for my feelings
You keep in saying for me
You continue to point out my flaws
How thoughtless I've been all these days
How I've been acting without consideration or care
But stop justifying yourself
Stop trying to excuse your own actions
You know that the truth will come out in the end
The truth will reveal itself eventually
You don't even care
You are indifferent to my struggles and feelings
