THE ARCADE FIRE - Ocean Of Noise lyrics

In an ocean of noise

I first heard your voice

Ringing like a bell

As if I had a choice, oh well!

Left in the morning

While you were fast asleep

Into an ocean of violence

A world of empty streets

You've got your reasons

And me I've got mine

But all the reasons I gave

Were just lies to buy myself some time

In an ocean of noise

I first heard your voice

Now who hear among us

Still believes in choice?

Not I!

No way of knowing

What any man will do

An ocean of violence

Between me and you

You've got your reasons

And me I've got mine

But all the reasons I gave

Were just lies to buy myself some time

I'm gonna work it out

Cause time wont work it out

I'm gonna work it out

Cause time wont work it our for you

I'm gonna work it on out
