Павел Суслов The ocean is inside us (rock version)

We wear our masks like borders of the land
Defining where the solid ground will be
But close your eyes and you will understand
We’re ships adrift upon the open sea
Beneath our skin, it's not just blood that flows
There's salt and foam, a silent, heavy space
It's where our love is born and where it goes
A massive, darkened wave we have to face

Each breath—a rising tide
Each silence—ebb inside
No one can see the deep
Where secret guilt we keep

This is the ocean buried deep inside
Uncharted, vast, where endless shadows sleep
In every single glance and word we hide
A lonely, raging storm begins to sweep
We drown within, but seek the light above
Through heavy water and the muddy ground
The ocean gives no answers to be found
But it remembers everyone you loved

Down in the depths where daylight never falls
Live all the dreams that we could not protect
The broken words and keys to empty halls
From all the open doors we did neglect
And if it's terrifying to move on
Just listen to the heartbeat in your chest
There underwater, even ice is gone
And every raging storm is put to rest

Each breath—a rising tide
Each silence—ebb inside
The currents pull us through
To shores we never knew

This is the ocean buried deep inside
Uncharted, vast, where endless shadows sleep
In every single glance and word we hide
A lonely, raging storm begins to sweep
We drown within, but seek the light above
Through heavy water and the muddy ground
The ocean gives no answers to be found
But it remembers everyone you loved

Don't be afraid to drown, don't fear the stream
Water is life, a thread within a dream
Between us both, between the "was" and "is"
The ocean cannot flatter, just exists
It simply is
It simply is

This is the ocean buried deep inside
Uncharted, vast, where endless shadows sleep
In every single glance and word we hide
A lonely, raging storm begins to sweep
We drown within, but seek the light above
Through heavy water and the muddy ground
The ocean gives no answers to be found
But it remembers everyone
You loved

Everyone you loved
Deep inside of us
