Song of the Islander II (Oceanic)

My hopes a boat, I float across the sea
Into your arms I’m wishing that we’ll finally meet
I dive from my platform up in the sky
Hoping you’ll catch me, hoping you’ll catch me before I die

My life’s a lonely island far from truth
All I have are broken memories of you
They’re barely there they’re barely even real
Yet I give them life with all that I feel

La di da la di da la di da

You think my smile was crafted by the years
I’ve been alone with all of my worst fears
Sure that’s it, but there is just a tad bit more
I asked for this, I asked to smile into the shores

You think my word has died with my name
Those who knew me think that I have gone insane
But you’re the fool, see sinking in your moat
A corked bottle and my words on a note

La di da la di da la di da

Caves (Oceanic)

Your shadow gave me such a fright, cast on cave walls
Our adventure comes to a pause, I see the flaws
I’ve been here maybe in a dream, so it seems
Life and love, somewhere in between

You say it’s not so scary, not so scary
Whisper again, not so scary, not so scary

Stalactite tears drip to the floor, night and day
Haunted beings frozen in their place, to live this way
I think I’m losing how to feel, will I heal?
‘Til I’m found in purgatory

You say it’s not so scary, not so scary
Whisper again, not so scary, not so scary
You yell down, not so scary, not so scary
Tell me again, not so scary, not so scary

I’ve sold the vessels to my heart, to that one cave
And to our culture, I am a slave, down to the grave
I’d never know I was alone, was I shown?
Paid the price to call this my home

You say it’s not so scary, not so scary
Whisper again, not so scary, not so scary
I would say, do you love me, do you love me?
Say it again, do you love me, do you love me?
