lyrics

Maybe we weren’t ever supposed to leave.
But some enterprising fish believed:
Happiness could be found on land,
but oh, that’s when all my troubles began.

So bury me beneath the ocean.

Beneath the waves where predators roam
it’s natrual we would find our home.
I’m lost, I’m lost in the world of men.
I long, I long to be home again.

Bury me beneath the ocean

There are so many lovely songs on this double album, but E.S.B. helped me through my own troubles - with my change in career, with my divorce, and with ending a number of toxic friendships. kanashiiichigo
