Into the Ocean
Blue October
(one of my fave bands!)

I’m just a normal boy
That sank when I fell overboard
My ship would leave the country
But I’d rather swim ashore

Without a life vest I’d be stuck again
Wish I was much more masculine
Maybe then I could learn to swim
Like ‘fourteen miles away’

Now floating up and down
I spin, colliding into sound
Like whales beneath me diving down
I’m sinking to the bottom of my
Everything that freaks me out
The lighthouse beam has just run out
I’m cold as cold as cold can be
be

I want to swim away but don’t know how
Sometimes it feels just like I’m falling in the ocean
Let the waves up take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion… yeah
Let the rain of what I feel right now…come down
Let the rain come down

Where is the coastguard
I keep looking each direction
For a spotlight, give me something
I need something for protection
Maybe flotsam junk will do just fine
the jetsam sunk, I’m left behind
I’m treading for my life believe me
(How can I keep up this breathing)

Not knowing how to think
I scream aloud, begin to sink
My legs and arms are broken down
With envy for the solid ground
I’m reaching for the life within me
How can one man stop his ending
I thought of just your face
Relaxed, and floated into space

I want to swim away but don’t know how
Sometimes it feels just like I’m falling in the ocean
Let the waves up take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion… yeah
Let the rain of what I feel right now…come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down

Now waking to the sun
I calculate what I had done
Like jumping from the bow (yeah)
Just to prove I knew how (yeah)
It’s midnight’s late reminder of
The loss of her, the one I love
My will to quickly end it all
Set front row in my need to fall

Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
Into the ocean, end it all
into the ocean…end it all

[Zayra]
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)

I want to swim away but don’t know how
Sometimes it feels just like I’m falling in the ocean
Let the waves up take me down
Let the hurricane set in motion (yeah)
Let the rain of what I feel right now…come down
Let the rain come down
Let the rain come down

Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
(In to space)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
(I thought of just your face)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)
Into the ocean (goodbye) end it all (goodbye)

Have you ever felt this way??? ‘yong ganito na parang gusto mo lamunin ka na lang ng tubig-dagat or anurin na lang ng alon ‘yong mga mga nararansan mo sa buhay?

Naranasan ninyo na ba ‘yong maligo sa ulan habang umiiyak? The best yun! Superb! Nung ginawa ko yun dati sobrang depressed ako at nagpunta ako sa Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife, tas biglang umulan habang sumisigaw ako at inilalabas yong galit ko sa mundo at sa buhay! Pero iba ‘yung feeling! Parang may soothing power ‘yung mga raindrops at tinatangay lahat ng negative feelings ko sa buhay…At first time sa buhay kong maransan ung iyak ka ng iyak (as in hagulgol) tas umulan. The next thing I did was pumikit ako at pagdilat ng mga mata ko, sobrang ibang joy naman ‘yung naranasan ko hanggang sa biglang gumaan ung feeling! Para akong sira, tawa naman ako nang tawa afterwards (parang may tama talaga ako nun!buti na lang walang gaanong tao sa wildlife nun!)!

(Napilitan tuloy akong magtaxi mula dun pauwi sa Pasig!Asus!!!)
