End of the Ocean
Navigating Love's Abyss: End of the Ocean
Lyrics
She'd light up a joint every single night
Expressing that she regularly smoked a joint every night.
Smoke it to her face, then chug a Coors light then say
Describing her smoking routine, followed by drinking a Coors light, then expressing a desire for intimacy.
Make love to me
An explicit request for physical intimacy.
She was the picture of beauty and class
Describing her as a combination of beauty and class.
A little bit sweet and a little bad ass I'd say, yes I'd say
Portraying her as both sweet and a bit rebellious.
If I sail to the End of the Ocean

-And if I fall off the edge of the world

Never find my way back home

-Who could ever make me whole
-Her body is covered in permanent art
Describing her body adorned with permanent tattoos, possibly hiding emotional wounds.
Trying to cover up those permanent scars she's worn
Using imagery of crowns of thorns to convey past pain or struggles.
Like crowns of thorn

She got in my face like a little bad ass
-She said, yes she said
