Ocean of Noise

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 here 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 won't work it out I'm gonna work it out 'Cause time won't work it out for you I'm gonna work it on out
