Ocean of Noise — The Arcade Fire

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 hear among us Still believes in choice? Not I!

No way of knowing What any man 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

I'm gonna work it out Cause time wont work it out I'm gonna work it out Cause time wont work it our for you I'm gonna work it on out
