General Information
The 10th track on Evanescence's self-titled album, Evanescence (album).
In an interview with Spin.com[1] Amy announced the name of three new songs to be included in Evanescence's new record, among these was "Oceans":
|
[Oceans] starts with a big, low synth and a vocal, then the band kicks in. It's big and lush. We've been having a lot of fun playing that one especially.
I get inspired by nature, the ocean's been a theme. Brokenness has become a little bit of theme, without necessarily offering a solution. |

Lyrics
Don’t wanna be the one to walk away
But I can’t bear the thought of one more day
I think I finally understand what it means to be lost
Can’t find the road to lead us out of this
A million miles from where we burned the bridge
Can’t keep pretending everything’s gonna be alright
With the whole world falling down on me
Cross the oceans in my mind
Find the strength to say goodbye
In the end you never can wash the blood from your hands
Falling so far from where we were before
You’ll never find what you’ve been searching for
Something to fill the void and
Make up for all of those missing pieces of you
Like I could only dream to do
Cross the oceans in my mind
Find the strength to say goodbye
Everything that we believed in was a lie
Cross the oceans in your mind
Find a way to blur the line.
In the end you never can wash the blood from your hands
And we never learn
So we fall down again
Heaven help me find a way to dream within this nightmare
Cross the oceans in my mind
Find the strength to say goodbye
Everything that we believed in was a lie
Cross the oceans in your mind
Find a way to blue the line
In the end you never can wash the blood from your hands
