Lyrics
There was a time
Reflecting on a past period
When I said yes to everything
Expressing a phase of constant affirmation
Danced like no one was watching
Engaging freely without self-consciousness
Oh there was a time
Nostalgia for a different time
When no was not a word i'd use
Rejecting the use of the word "no"
Tho I should have backed away from some things like you
Acknowledging a need to step back from certain situations or relationships
Don't be mistaken
Emphasizing the importance of not misunderstanding
We should always be open
Advocating for openness in all situations
To whatever might happen next
Encouraging a positive attitude towards the unknown future
No hesitation jump into the ocean
Urging to take risks without hesitation
Never knowing
Embracing uncertainty
What's beneath the waves?
Questioning the hidden aspects of life
What's beneath the waves?
Repetition for emphasis on the unknown
Oh there was a time
Revisiting a period of unrestricted acceptance
When I said yes to everything
Highlighting absolute openness
Completely open was I mad?
Questioning one's sanity during such openness
Motherfucking out of my mind
Expressing an extreme state of mind
When no was not a word I'd use
Reiterating the rejection of the word "no"
Oh I should have backed away
Acknowledging the need for restraint despite inner knowledge
Oh in my heart I knew
Inner conflict and awareness
Don't be mistaken
Warning against misunderstanding
We can all be broken open
Recognizing vulnerability and the potential to be emotionally affected
I said yes too many times
Admitting to excessive agreement
Too many lines left wide open
Regretting the consequences of too much openness
Oh what an ocean!
Metaphorically portraying life's vastness and depth
Oh what an ocean
Repetition emphasizing the profound nature of life
What's beneath the waves?
Revisiting the mystery beneath the surface of existence
