When oceans rise
And waves break around my heart
I will sit in silence
As we tear apart
The key to happiness
I held in my hand
It led to emptiness
And now my heart is a clump of sand
When oceans rise
And waves break around my heart
I will sit in silence
As we tear apart
The words that you don't speak
They penetrate my armour that I built
The last time this happened to me
Set me free
Hope is a prison
Hope is a prison I can't escape
Look at me in the eyes
Tell me that we'll be fine
Don't speak another lie
I know we won't survive
When oceans rise
And waves break around my heart
I will sit in silence
As we tear apart
The words that you don't speak
They penetrate my armour that I built
The last time this happened to me
Your silence sends daggers down
To the depths of the hole in my life
I thought I had it figured out
But you will never be mine
I can never call you mine
When oceans rise
And waves break around my heart
I will sit in silence
As we tear apart
The words that you don't speak
They penetrate my armour that I built
The last time this happened to me
Please set me free
I know now that hope is a prison
