Ocean of Another

Tear the tears out of my open eyes

For I no longer need to drown

In the ocean of another

Tear the tears out of my open eyes

Above a buried garden we've both lived in

And bring me back to life

I promised I'd be devoid of devotion

Until a blinding light could thaw me from my core

Shining between the lips of lacerations

As we compare the way that we burn to the sun

Throw yourself into the middle of my arms

And I swear I'll keep you safe

The scars that you keep secret were placed upon my limbs

And I would fill them in with my flesh if I could

I swear I'll keep you safe

Tear the tears out of my open eyes

For I no longer need to drown

In the ocean of another

Tear the tears out of my open eyes

Above a buried garden we've both lived in

And bring me back to life

Pull the nameless arrow from my chest

And exchange it with your own

Replace the hurt within me with a stare

That watches over me

When I allow myself to sleep

The scars that you keep secret were placed upon my limbs

And I would fill them in with my flesh if I could

Throw yourself into the middle of my arms

And I swear I'll keep you safe

Tear the tears out of my open eyes

For I no longer need to drown

In the ocean of another

Tear the tears out of my open eyes

Above a buried garden we've both lived in

To bring me back to life
