Lirik Lagu NIKI - Oceans & Engines

Saturday sunset

We're lying on my bed with five hours to go

Fingers entwined and so were our minds

Crying, I don't want you to go

You wiped away tears

But not fears under the still and clear indigo

You said "Baby, don't cry, we'll be fine"

"You're the one thing I swear I can't outgrow"

My mother said the younger me was a pretending prodigy

Well, nothing then much has changed

'Cause while you're wolfing down liquor

My soul, it gets sicker

But I'm sticking to the screenplay

Gotta say I'm okay

But answer this, babe

How is it now that somehow you're a stranger?

You were mine just yesterday

I prayed the block in my airway dissipates

And instead deters your airplane's way

But heaven denied

Destiny decried

Something beautiful died

Too soon

But I'm letting go

I'm giving up the ghost

But don't get me wrong

I'll always love you that's why I wrote you this very last song

I guess this is where we say goodbye

I know I'll be alright

Someday I'll be fine

But just not tonight (Oh)

Plunging into all kinds of diversions

Like blush wine and sonorous soirées

But even with gin and surgin' adrenaline

I see you're all that can intoxicate

Oceans and engines

You're skilled at infringin' on great love affairs

'Cause now my heart's home

All I've known is long gone and ten thousand miles away

And I'm not okay

But I'm letting go

I'm givin' up the ghost

But don't get me wrong

I'll always love you that's why I wrote you this very last song

I guess this is where we say goodbye

I know I'll be alright

But just not

Tonight was the first time I stared into seas of beguiling sepia two years ago

And the first time I learned real world superpowers lived in three words and could revitalize my fraying bones (Hm)

Now what do you do when your pillar crumbled down

You've lost all solid ground

Both dreams and demons drowned

And this void's all you've found

And doubts light it aglow

I have so many questions

But I'm pouring them into the ocean

And I'm starting up my engine

And I'm letting go

I'm givin' up your ghost

It's come to a close

I marked the end with this last song I wrote

I'm letting go

This is the last falsetto I'll ever sing to you

My great lost love
