We spent our lives together It should have last forever But now it's time to sail on So take this anchor from my heart So we can finally drift apart Before we drown in sorrow I gave you sanctuary Under the sun we lived care free I tried so hard to love you But then you turned your back on me Your good intentions turned to greed And now it's great to know that you have bee Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed oh The bluest skies turned into grey Through tortured eyes I watched you change A paradise went up in flames And though I cried a thousand times You didn't hear the lies in time There's nowhere left to hide since you have been Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed oh Your devastation took it's toll As the waves came crashing to the coast This sinking ship, I'm taking back from your control It felt so good to cross my arms and renounce my faith in mankind How could you ever be so blind to think that you survive Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean I hope you know that nothing matters Now that you have been Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean I hope you know this ship has finally come to rest I hope you know this ship has finally come to rest Oh, I hope you know someday this ship will be your end
