Ocean of noise 

I first heard your voice 

Ring like a bell 

As if I had a choice, oh well 



Left in the morning 

While you were fast asleep 

To 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 yourself some time 



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 men will do 

An ocean 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 



And can we work it out? 

It's time to work it out 

Gonna work it out 

It's time to work it out for you 

We're gonna work it all out 

It's time to work it out 

We're gonna work it out 

It's time to work it out 

Time to work it all out
