Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up by the ocean Swallowed up ♪ The bluest skies turned into grey Through tortured eyes I watched you change Our paradise went up in flames And though I cried a thousand times You didn't hear the rising tide There's nowhere left to hide since 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 some day this ship will be your end
