When I first saw you
the riptide of your eyes pulled me in
so beautiful, so innocent, so comforting
So I thought it was safe to go in a little deeper

but the deeper I went, the more the salt water burned
It burned my eyes with beauty
it burned my ears with lies
accusations, ignored calls, hateful words

but no matter how much it burned
I just couldn't stop myself from going further
deeper and deeper into the blue

How far can you go into the ocean before it starts to consume you.
How far can you go into the ocean, before you drown.
