In the middle of the ocean

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE OCEAN (D G D G B E, capo 2)

In the middle of the ocean where you don’t know which way is down.

And you only know you’re lost once it’s too late to get out.

In the thickest of the dark even the light turns black.

And you only sink deeper the harder you fight back.

 

And then you forget who you are and the reasons why you came.

You let go of all the baggage and you slowly float away.

And you shouldn’t be surprised as the light returns.

Every shark has to bite, every flame has to burn.
