about

The Ocean is the first single from the debut album "In Your Shark Eyes' (released June 21st, 2022) and serves as introduction to 'Person' and their journey out of the ocean at the behest of a mysterious entity. The call to return to reality is severe, but is there any reality to return to?

“…of course you’ve changed. But I’d be more worried about what going ashore can do to your head. Out there, outside the ocean you’re all alone. But maybe that’s the point right? Speaking of how long have you been ashore? You don’t look well. I’m sending you supplements. None of that government issued shit. All natural amigo… lastly, I hear you’ve been visited by the Brothers. It likely means the agency knows you’ve gone ashore. Fortunately, they will not bother as long as they think you’re on their supplements too…more to come. Stay well”
- The *****

lyrics

The ocean is much deeper than I imagined
the feeling
my chest is numb, my head is caved, my arms feel like paper weights
let this ocean bury me consume me whole and lap my face

big waves incoming, change is just like that
save yourself

and like a fish in your shark eyes, yes i feel fear
but it's so brief, the ocean escapes me
joy is so fleeting

big waves incoming, change is just like that
save yourself
