Oceans
Relive Your Fall Lyrics

Standing, staring
In a state of complete stillness, gazing intensely

At this reflection
Looking at oneself in the mirror or inwards, perhaps in contemplation or self-reflection

Into these eyes
Looking deeply into one's own eyes, perhaps trying to find something or hiding something

That always do stare back
Noticing that one's own eyes seem to stare back with an unwavering gaze

But not this time
Realizing that something has changed, and one's own reflection is not responding as expected

As dust settles on your shoulders
Feeling weighed down and burdened by the past, as if it is settling like dust on one's shoulders

Everything goes by
Feeling like time is passing quickly, without the ability to hold onto anything

But not this time
Despite everything else seeming fleeting, this moment stands out as somehow significant or different

These arms are getting weary
Feeling physically or emotionally tired, worn out from exertion or effort

These legs worn out
Feeling exhausted or depleted, as if one has been carrying a heavy load or walking for miles

And time is lying heavy on your back
Feeling the weight of time passing, as if it is weighing heavily on one's shoulders or back

Don't call this house a home
Refusing to identify with or feel comfortable in one's surroundings, as if it is not a real home

The doors are closed
Feeling cut off from the world, or as if one has shut oneself away from others

These hallways are abandoned
Feeling like one is walking through empty or deserted spaces, devoid of life or meaning

You take these stairs alone
Feeling isolated or alone, but continuing to move forward on one's own

This room, it lay reposed
Feeling a sense of calm or stillness, perhaps in one's environment or within oneself

The floor breaks open where you took your stand
Feeling like the ground has been pulled out from under oneself, as if a foundation or belief system has been shattered

Now you can see the shore
Feeling like one is finally reaching a destination or a place of safety, perhaps after a difficult journey

The waves embrace your
Feeling surrounded or comforted by the natural rhythms and cycles of life, as represented by the ocean waves

Waiving heart
Feeling emotional or unstable, as if one's heart is waving or fluttering in the breeze

And while your lungs give up
Feeling like one is struggling to breathe or stay alive, as if the body is giving up

Try to think of better days
Encouraging oneself to remember happier times or positive experiences, in order to find strength or hope

The choice was yours
Realizing that one's own decisions and actions have led to the current situation or outcome

And still I see your face
Remembering or being haunted by a past lover or acquaintance, even though they are gone

Your eyes were screaming burden
Noticing that someone else was carrying a heavy load or burden, as if it was written on their face

Please take your hands off me
Feeling overwhelmed or suffocated by someone else's presence or expectations

And waking upon hours
Experiencing something that keeps one awake for hours or disturbs one's sleep

There was no such thing as sleep
Feeling constantly restless or unable to find peace or relaxation, as if sleep is impossible

Your dreams were setting sail
Realizing that one's hopes and aspirations are taking on a life of their own, as if they are setting sail on the sea

And the moral of the sea
Seeing the ocean as a metaphor for life, and understanding that there are lessons to be learned from its vastness and power

It keeps what it devours
Recognizing that the sea can be both nurturing and destructive, and that it consumes whatever crosses its path

Unheard fades your last hail
Feeling like one's final message or attempt to communicate is lost or ignored, as if it fades into obscurity

When sleepless nights won't tell me
Feeling like one is unable to find answers or solace, even during times when one cannot sleep

The reason why
Feeling confused or uncertain, as if one cannot find an explanation or justification for one's experiences

Here's to the memories that replace the stars tonight
Holding onto memories and experiences that bring comfort or beauty, as if they are a replacement for the stars in the sky

We hope you found your light
Offering well wishes or positive energy to someone who may be searching for guidance or inspiration

I still remember
Holding onto memories or experiences that are still vivid and meaningful, even if they are in the past

Days that felt much better
Remembering times when life felt more joyful or easier, as if one is reminiscing about the good old days

And now oceans do us part
Feeling like one is being separated from someone or something important, as if the vastness of the ocean is creating a divide

Goodbye
Saying farewell or bidding adieu to someone or something, perhaps with a sense of finality
