Carried a burden inside
I sung a last goodbye
A broken rhyme I'd underlined
There's an ocean of sorrow in you
A sorrow in me
Saw a movement in their eyes
Said I no longer knew the way
Given up the ghost
A passive mind submit to fear
And the wait for redemption at hand
Waiting to fail
Failing again
If death should take me now
Count my mistakes and let me through
Whisper in my ear
You've taken more than we've received
And the ocean of sorrow is you
I, once upon a time Carried a burden inside I sung a last goodbye A broken rhyme I'd underlined There's an ocean of sorrow in you A sorrow in me Saw a movement in their eyes Said I no longer knew the way Given up the ghost A passive mind submit to fear And the wait for redemption at hand Waiting to fail Failing again If death should take me now Count my mistakes and let me through Whisper in my ear You've taken more than we've received And the ocean of sorrow is you Explain Request ×
