"Oceania" lyrics - THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE

THE BIRTHDAY MASSACRE
"Oceania"

From the ocean, we were washed up on the other shore
We didn't know where we'd been, or who we were before
We were two brothers and a sister with three poison hearts
We walked so close together, but our souls were always far apart

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
A slight of hand, a flash of light
Our seasick days and homesick nights
When tomorrow comes, there'll be no end in sight

[Chorus:]
These dreams of blood and devotion follow us here
These tears run into the ocean as we disappear

Underneath the mountain, we took shelter from the storm
When the skies had cleared, we chased our shadows North
We drew a circle in the ashes where we fell asleep
We dreamed about tomorrow and the secret we would always keep

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
A slight of hand to make us blind
Our past life shared, we left behind
When tomorrow comes, there'll be no end in sight

[Chorus:]
These dreams of blood and devotion follow us here
These tears run into the ocean as we disappear

[Bridge:]
Home is something I'll never know
It's where I wanted to go
'Cause in the world below I was always alone

[Refrain:]
A slight of hand, a flash of light
Our seasick days and homesick nights
When tomorrow comes, there'll be no end in sight

[Outro:]
These dreams of blood and devotion follow us here
These tears run into the ocean as we disappear
