Verse 1:   June was the lobster shell I dug by hand A haven that hid me well Beneath the sand   The white windy waves washed in But I stayed dry The great breakers broke again ’Cause I’m on and off inside And then when the empress run aground And my eyes turned blue and green I heard a gorgeous sound And that’s when it became a dream When the sky fell in   When the hurricanes came for me I could finally crash again And that’s how I became the sea               Verse 2 (same as verse 1): I wrenched the engines off             And dragged them down             The depths turned the iron soft As they swiftly drowned            And I brought the ocean side To its rusty knees              As I felt the even tide     Deep in my shallow dreams                     And then when the empress run aground And my eyes turned blue and green I heard a gorgeous sound And that’s when it became a dream When the sky fell in   When the hurricanes came for me I could finally crash again And that’s how I became the sea Instrumental:              (2x) Chorus 2: (When the sky fell in) When the sky fell in (When the sky fell in) When the hurricanes came for me I could finally crash again And that’s how I became the sea (How I became the sea) That’s how I became the sea (How I became the sea) That’s how I became the sea

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque un voyage intérieur où le protagoniste se sent à la fois perdu et libéré, utilisant la mer comme métaphore de sa transformation. Il se souvient de moments où il s'est caché et s'est senti en sécurité, malgré les tempêtes qui l'entourent. Des images puissantes de vagues et d'ouragans illustrent les luttes que l’on peut traverser, mais aussi la beauté qui émerge de ces défis. Au final, la mer représente une acceptation de soi et une renaissance face aux tumultes de la vie.
