Don’t wanna be the one to walk away <br>
Don't wanna be the one to walk away
But I can’t bear the thought of one more day<br>
But I can't bare the thought of one more day
I think I finally understand what it means to be lost<br><br>
I think I finally understand what it means to be lost


Can’t find the road to lead us out of this<br>
Can't find the road to lead us out of this
A million miles from where we burned the bridge<br>
A million miles from where we burned the bridge
Can’t keep pretending that every thing’s gonna be alright<br><br>
Can't keep pretending everything's gonna be alright


With the whole world falling down on me<br><br>
With the whole world falling down on me


Cross the oceans in my mind<br>
Cross the oceans in my mind
Find the strength to say goodbye<br>
Find the strength to say goodbye
In the end you never can <br>
In the end you'll never again wash the blood from your hands
Wash the blood from your hands <br><br>


Falling so far from where we were before<br>
For it's a fall from where we were before
You’ll never find what you’ve been searching for<br>
You'll never find what you've been searching for
Something to fill the void and <br>
Something to fill the void and make up for all of those missing pieces of you
Make up the roll of those missing pieces of you<br><br>


Like I could only dream to do<br><br>
Like I could only dream to do


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


Oh, we never learn <br>
Cross the oceans in your life
So we fall down again<br>
Find a way to draw the line
Hurt me, hurt me <br>
In the end you'll never again wash the blood from your hands
Find your way to dream within this nightmare<br><br>


Cross the oceans in my mind<br>
And we'll never learn
Find the strength to say goodbye<br>
So we fall down again
Everything we believed in was a lie<br>
Heaven help me find a way to dream within this nightmare
Cross the oceans in your mind<br>
 
Find a way to to blur the line<br>
Cross the oceans in my mind
In the end you never can<br>
Find the strength to say goodbye
Wash the blood from your hands
Everything that we believed in was a lie
 
Cross the oceans in your mind
Find a way to draw the line
In the end you'll never again wash the blood from your hands

General Informations

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.


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 bare 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'll never again wash the blood from your hands

For it's a fall 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 life Find a way to draw the line In the end you'll never again wash the blood from your hands

And we'll 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 draw the line In the end you'll never again wash the blood from your hands
