The Ocean Grew Hands To Hold Me Lyrics - The Wonder Years

I stopped making deals with God 

Right around when you left 

I said that I would start believing 

If they made you well again 

Guess they knew it was bullshit 

Never hold up my end 

All the walls are stained in your nicotine 

I could feel closing in 

I heard somebody cry 

I thought I was alone 

I came to numb my lungs in the salt air 

Let the breakers heal my bones 

I wish that the current would carry me home 

I've been running for a decade now 

And I think I'm ready to go 

Oh, I'm ready to go

I stopped making deals with God 

When the light finally died 

I'm gonna guard what's left of the good in us 

When the ash blocks out the sky 

And hold you with my left hand 

And ball up my right 

And if the bastards come for both of us 

I'll be right there by your side 

I'm by your side 

When I was in shambles 

When I got too weak 

The ocean grew hands to hold me 

When I was in shambles 

When I got too weak 

The ocean grew hands to hold me

I stopped blaming God 

When you said you were sick 

I learned to lean on the people who love me 

When the sutures start to split 

I trust in the current to pull you back in 

I miss everyone at once 

But most of all, I miss the ocean
