Being As An Ocean - Nothing, Save the Power They’re Given lyrics

rate me

These words might mean nothing

But it’s a chance I’m willing to take

Cause maybe I’m wrong

And lives can change!

I’m singing out of my insecurity

So someone, somewhere might

Be impacted by what I’ve made

I fidget and I sway back and forth

Biting my nails down until they bleed.

There is a lie that I’ve believed

I’d tell you,

(But I’m so scared)

Of what you’d think!

So I apologize if I’ve caused you to wake

Just close your eyes and let the beat rock you back to sleep

I’ll tell you in the morning

About how this man you see

Often times feels like a child, self-conscious and weak.

I’ll still put pen to paper

Try to explain these things

That invade my thoughts, and my waking hours.

Stories of kings and princes that have lost their way

God, we’d give anything

(Just to feel safe!)

Deep down, we all know our worth

We just need someone to truly love us first

So we ... around these crowded rooms

Hoping someone in attendance

Might be able to dress our wounds.

[Outro:]

We cry without uttering a single word

So gather close, circle round,

Cause maybe you’ve just never heard

And I’ll tell you the story of the love I’ve found

About the truth embedded in you long before your birth

I’ll ask once more, what are these words worth?
