As I Lay Dying An Ocean Between Us lyrics

 
Go

How many years have we waited
For a ship that never set sail?
And how many days have we wasted
Chasing a love that was not our own?
I sat ashore and watched
As one hopeless wave crashed upon another
While my thoughts ran to the highest hills
My heart never reached the sea
With only delusions of an endless journey
I am left with an ocean between you and me
An ocean between....

Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/a/as_i_lay_dying/an_ocean_between_us.html ]
The gate to my heart has been weld shut
With the splendor of my aspirations closed in
How many years have we waited
For a ship that never set sail?
And how many days have we wasted
Chasing a love that was not our own?
Is this your salvation?

Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream

how many years have we waited
for a ship to never, never set sail
how many years have we waited
for a ship to never, never set sail
never set sail

Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream

Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream

Don't try to be someone else. Don't chase what's meant to be another person's purpose. Stand out from being just a follower.

I believe this is a song about a guy chasing a girl, and the girl leads him on, yet she keeps him at an arms distance because of a another guy who she likes but has a distant relationship with.

Is this your salvation? Is our friendship your salvation when things turn down with the other person thats distant from you.

Is this all you can give? All you can give is what you call friendship even though the other person is there to pick up the pieces all the time.

I will not stand in reflection of someone elses dream. Im not going to continue picking up the pieces of your other relationship all the time, while you claim we are only friends.

Meanwhile you are constantly waiting with for her to change her mind (the ship to set sail) and close the ocean of friendship between both of you.

Personally i interpret this song about romance because i'd be able to relate. For example "chasing a love that was not our own" or "my heart never reached the sea". But at the same time it can be construed in different ways. No one can say for sure "this song is definetly about god" or "this song is definetly about love" unless it's coming from the singer's mouth.

Apart frm the sound of truth the other songs need some tym to get lykd.. I mean (atleast fr me) i need to hear their songs fro some tiym to start lyking that song... And fro the debate on wedr this is a christian band... Well... This is just band wid christs in it.. But not singing christian songbut singing on various issues surrounding us wid a metalcore feeling...

Haha i have to say i agree with two guys underneath my comment. Your all baffoons argue as much as u like about whether they are a christian band or not, and you have all proven its getting you no where, just accept the fact there is no "right" answer your all going to have your opinions what you think the band is at the end of the day. The bottom line is at the end of the day this is a bad ass band end of the story.

This is a good song. But i think all of you people need to stop arguing with eachother wether the band is christian or not. Its like thousand foot crutch. Everyone thinks they are christian. The truth is. The band does not consider itself as a christian band. But honestly who cares. Just enjoy the music

Uh as i lay dying isn't a christian band. Its a metalcore band.. They just are all christian.. This doesn't make them a christian band... This song can be view many different ways.. About god or a girl.. Its for you to decide. They do use christian ideas in their music.. But that doesn't make the a christian band.. Because this band doesn't suck,
like normal christian bands do. Lol.

"us christians" is what seperates you from the rest of the world. The song is about what the artist felt at the time of writing it, god or girl it dosent matter. What the song means to the listener is what really matters. And obviously its about satan, duh
