Ally In The Ocean
The Boy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't know what changed your notion what makes you do things like you do
You told me that there was no other but those words have proven untrue
There's no use to help me further I'm lost like a cloud in the blue
Like a wave that rise on the seashore for something that never can reach
My heart to you doesn't mean more than a small grain of sand on the beach
Like you toss a rock in the ocean to be lost like the words of my plea
The lyrics of "Ally In The Ocean" by The Boy explore the heartbreak of unrequited love, with the song's narrator lamenting his unreciprocated affections for someone who has moved on. The opening line, "a rock down deep in the ocean means more than my heart means to you," sets the tone for the rest of the song, with the singer acknowledging that his love is not returned and that he feels discarded and insignificant.
The second verse continues this theme, with the singer expressing confusion and hurt over why this person has changed their feelings and actions towards him. He thought they had an unbreakable bond, but now feels adrift and lost without them. The chorus reinforces this sense of despair, with the singer comparing his love to a wave that never reaches the shore and his heart to a small grain of sand on the beach.
The final verse sees the singer resigned to their fate, recognizing that their pleas for love and attention have fallen on deaf ears. The line "just like a stone in the sea" provides a poignant metaphor for the emotional weight of unrequited love and the feeling of being cast aside and forgotten.
Overall, "Ally In The Ocean" is a melancholy yet beautifully written song that captures the pain of loving someone who doesn't love you back. The evocative metaphors and poignant vocals make it a standout track in The Boy's discography.

I don't understand what happened to change your behavior towards me.
You told me that there was no other but those words have proven untrue
You lied to me when you said there was no one else, but your actions show otherwise.
There's no use to help me further I'm lost like a cloud in the blue
There's no point in trying to fix our relationship because I feel helpless and unsure of what to do.
Like a wave that rise on the seashore for something that never can reach
My efforts to win your love are as futile as a wave trying to reach the shore.
My heart to you doesn't mean more than a small grain of sand on the beach
You don't value my love for you, to you it's as insignificant as a tiny grain of sand.
Like you toss a rock in the ocean to be lost like the words of my plea
You disregard my devotion towards you, it's lost on you like a rock thrown into the ocean.
That's how you discarded devotion just like a stone in the sea
You've thrown away my love for you as if it means nothing to you, like a stone discarded in the sea.
