General Informations

The 10th track on Evanescence's self-titled album, Evanescence (album).

In an interview with Spin.com 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.

Evanescence premiered Oceans on the 17 August 2011 during Evanescence's show in Nashville.

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 that 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 the roll 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 we believed in was a lie
Cross the oceans in your mind
Find a way to to blur the line
In the end you never can
Wash the blood from your hands

Oh, we never learn
So we fall down again
Hurt me, hurt me
Find your way to dream within this nightmare

Cross the oceans in my mind
Find the strength to say goodbye
Everything we believed in was a lie
Cross the oceans in your mind
Find a way to to blur the line
In the end you never can
Wash the blood from your hands
