EVANESCENCE

- Oceans 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 every thing'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 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

What is the meaning behind Oceans lyrics?


When we delve into what the artist truly meant to convey, Evanescence's 'Oceans' seems to speak about the hardships of confronting one's inner conflicts and making an effort to leave behind a hurting past. The words show a process of becoming aware of oneself, accepting that one cannot completely eliminate the impacts of their deeds, and going round and round through the errors' cycle of making and falling back into depression again. The main focus of the song is on despair, heartbreak, angst, reflection, and solitude. The lyrics of the song convey the same time through such a huge message as that of loss and letting go, searching for meaning, and disillusionment. There are references to loss and emotional struggle, as well as violent imagery ('wash the blood from your hands'), which might not be appropriate for children below 13 years of age. The use of mature themes and the deep emotional experience justify the PG-13 rating.
