Oceans & Engines

[Verse 1]

Saturday sunset, we're lyin' on my bed

With five hours to go

Fingers entwined and so were our minds

Cryin', "I don't want you to go"

You wiped away tears, but not fears

Under the still and clear indigo

You said "Baby, don't cry, we'll be fine

You're the one thing I swear I can't outgrow"

[Verse 2]

My mother said the younger me was a pretending prodigy

Well, nothin', then, much has changed

'Cause while you're wolfin' down liquor

My soul, it gets sicker

But I'm stickin' to the screenplay

Gotta say I'm okay, but answer this, babe

How is it now that, somehow, you're a strangеr?

You were mine just yеsterday

I pray the block in my airway dissipates

And instead deters your airplane's way

[Pre-Chorus]

But heaven denied

Destiny decried

Somethin' beautiful died

Too soon

[Chorus]

But I'm lettin' go

I'm givin' up the ghost

But don't get me wrong

I'll always love you, that's why I

Wrote you this very last song

I guess this is where we say goodbye

I know I'll be alright

Someday, I'll be fine

But just not tonight (Ooh)

[Verse 3]

Plungin' into all kinds of diversions

Like blush wine and sonorous soirées

But even with gin and surgin' adrenaline

I see you're all that can intoxicate

Oceans and engines, you're skilled at infringin'

On great love affairs

'Cause now my heart's home, all I've known is long gone

And ten thousand miles away

[Pre-Chorus]

And I'm not okay

[Chorus]

But I'm lettin' go

I'm givin' up the ghost

But don't get me wrong

I'll always love you, that's why I

Wrote you this very last song

I guess this is where we say goodbye

I know I'll be alright

But just not

[Bridge]

Tonight was the first time I stared into

Seas of beguilin' sepia two years ago

And the first time I

Learned real world superpowers lived in three words

They revitalized my frayin' bones, oh

Now what do you do when your

Pillar crumbled down, you've lost all solid ground

Both dreams and demons drowned and this void's all you've found

And doubts light it aglow?

I have so many questions

But I'm pourin' them into the ocean and I'm startin' up my engine

[Chorus]

And I'm lettin' go

I'm givin' up your ghost

It's come to a close

I marked the end with this last song I wrote

I'm lettin' go

This is the last falsetto

I'll ever sing to you, my great, lost love
