Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Again I'm talking to the lake

I'm standing on the rocks

Yer not the ocean

I'm better to watch

Britney is invisible or the stranger in myself

Than a wall of water just hitting the shelf

[Verse 2]

Yer not the ocean

You're up to my toes

Yer not the ocean

You're not even close

[Verse 3]

Though you're so real

And you're more youth every day

And you can think and feel

And get out of your own way

And though I'm nothing

You are just a lake

Made to take it

And take, and take, and take

[Verse 4]

Yer not the ocean

I'm standing on my toes

Yer not the ocean

You're not even close

[Verse 5]

Yer not the ocean

You're up to my chin

Yer not the ocean

You're not coming in

You're not coming in

You're not coming in

You're not coming in

[Verse 6]

Yer not the ocean

You're up to my chin

Yer not the ocean

You're not coming in

You're not coming in

You're not coming in

You're not coming in
