Hadopelagic Ii: Let Them Believe - The Ocean

I can feel

These circles will always touch in more than one point

Repelled and pulled towards each other: repelled again

Unconditional projection alternates with short

Fervid intervals of perfection and boundless bonding

But be sure: trust needs to be reevaluated

While our aging promises turn to plights

And their weight and meaning changes

Differing sizes of intersections:

Territories abandoned, lost and reclaimed

Everything’s in constant motion

So let them live with the contradictions

Between what they call passion

And the constraints of our modern living

Which leave no space for the irrational

And most importantly

Let them have confidence and peace

Let them be powerless

But most surprisingly

They’re not afraid of how they’ll feel

When they come closer

All these restrictions are self-inflicted:

Let them be helpless

Let them embrace symbols of commitment

To compensate for the lack of it

I can feel

These circles will always touch in more than one point

Repelled and pulled towards each other: repelled again

Regulations and restrictions determine how we live

And what we’ve got to give

But be sure: trust needs to be reevaluated

While our ageing promises turn to plights

Change is what scares us shitless

Most importantly

Let them have confidence and peace

Let them be powerless

But most surprisingly

They’re not afraid of how they’ll feel

When they come closer

Symbols of commitment to disguise the lack of it

Let them believe

Let them believe in themselves

And let them live with their contradictions

What they call passion is just the turmoil

Caused by repression of their ambitions

Let them believe
