The Truth About Me
Today I went to the ocean and
Turned my back to the sea.
Called myself a liar
'Cause I couldn't face the waves.
I thought that I could deny
What I refused to be,
The ocean stood behind me and
Sang out loud to me.
What if I told you the truth about me?
What if I told you I lie when I breathe?
Today I went to the ocean
And fell into belief.
Thought about the lord above
And got down on my knees.
I thought that I could deny
A million miles of green,
The ocean stood behind me and
Sang out loud to me.
What if I told you the truth about me?
What if I told you I lie when I breathe?
Today I went to the ocean
And turned my face to see.
Filled my pockets up with rocks
And walked into the deep.
What if I told you the truth about me?
What if I told you I lie when I breathe?
What if I told you the things I believe
I cannot feel?
