Arcade Fire lyrics - Ocean of Noise

album: Neon Bible (2007)
genre: 

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 ocen 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.
