Being As An Ocean - L'exquisite Douleur Lyrics






Well I can't get too close without wanting all of you
So I'll settle right into this back seat
But to be honest, I'm not sure if I can take the solitude
It's been a long time running
Since I sighted my first love
And this mountainside's only getting steeper
My breath's burning in my lungs
I wonder when I'm gonna catch a break
or at least be able to breathe easier
This drive is telling me to be all that I can't for her
You're not holding up your end of the bargain,
but I'll continue to hold up mine
'Cause I've always been a betting man
And I'm dying for you to prove me right
I see the potential you have inside
Maybe that's why I've continued to fight
You just can't see all that you are to me
So I'll just have to learn to be alright
Without you by my side
My bed seems so much colder at night
This chill doesn't seem to be going away
So I'll acquire a taste for its bite

Give these dry lips words to speak
A wandering soul, hopeful for living springs
Searching tirelessly for a well, blue and deep
From which to pull up strength, something cool to drink
There are deserts hidden deep inside you and me
Come now, sit for a while and breathe
You don't have to say a thing
Darling, your silence says everything

You're not holding up your end of the bargain,
but I'll continue to hold up mine
'Cause I've always been a betting man
And I'm just dying for you to prove me right

I just want to know your story
Learning, so I may love you complete
'Cause if we dig deep enough
There are wells hidden deep inside of you and me

You're not holding up your end of the bargain,
but I'll continue to hold up mine
'Cause I've always been a betting man
And I'm just dying for you to prove me right

    Incrível

  25. S.... N....

    The Exquisite Pain

  26. N.... ....

    3:28 -THAT'S FUCKING PART ^_^ MMMM AMAZING

  27. r.... s....

    Pure hope.

  28. T.... ....

    Great song too bad the song title is in frenglish lol. The exquisite pain in French is "la douleur exquise".

  29. D.... S....

    Easily my favorite band experience. My friend had been trying to bang some random wench from Bumble and before she disappeared into Oblivion she said, If you are going to Warped Tour you should see Being As An Ocean. Low and behold they start with this song and Joel walks off the stage into the audience and proceeds to mosh with us all without missing a line while the sky opened up and poured down on us. Great band hope to see you again in the future!!!

  30. K.... B....

    joel's trash talk shirt tho😍

  31. I.... ....

    Trash talk "destroy" huuuu

  32. �.... ....

    0:34 when you cant stand your own fart....

  33. E.... F....

    The Mewithoutyou influence is strong on the verse

  34. f.... ....

    This song has me in tears. It means as much to me as she does. Maybe one day she will catch a glimpse of me in perfect light. Maybe one day she will feel for me as I have felt, and will always feel for her.
    Until then, I'll do everything I can to keep her next to me.
    I love you.

  35. A.... T....

    I only like the singing at the end, I wish the whole song was like that.

  36. S.... D....

    my guiding force ❤

  37. F.... U....

    Holy shit it just dawned on me Daniel from capsize filmed this holy shit he's talented badass song too

  38. K.... ....

    This song is the musical illustration of what I'm going through right now. Knowing the potential of another person that doesn't feel the same for you but not being able to walk away. "Cuz I've always been a betting man, and I'm just dying for you to prove me wrong."

  39. T.... ....

    Every single time I listen to this song I still think about you. It'll never change.

  40. I.... B....

    💗💗💗

  41. B.... A....

    BRUUUUH HE'S WEARING FUCKING TRASH TALK MERCH

  44. r.... p....

    r.... p....

    rene pusepatten Being As An Ocean and La Dispute invented the genre

  45. Q.... f....

    you don't have to say a thing, your silence says everything.

  46. D.... A....

    the ending should have been the chorus

  47. R.... G....

    Skinny Seth Rogen on bass

    Jodidamente Perfecta esta cancion!

  89. R.... S....

    Does anybody know what Connor Denis (drummer) is using on his kick for the stick hits? That wooden block type thing. What's it called? Gone through so many kick rims because of stick hits while gigging.

    R.... S....

    +Ryan Sutherland Just a simple chop block.

    R.... S....

    I think it's called a drum mute. If I'm wrong it's probably not hard to make one yourself. Wouldn't be that hard of a DIY

    R.... S....

    Ryan Sutherland it's actually called a chop block. It's just a block of wood that protects your bass rim from being damaged while hitting it. A lot of sjc artists use these, as it is an option available to them while customizing their set.

  90. G.... B....

    MUSICA QUE NÃO ENJOA CARA <3 <3

  91. T.... T....

    their videos are always so beautiful

  92. M.... S....

    It's been days, and I Can't. Stop. Listening!

  97. P.... B....

    Alexisonfire?

  98. M.... T....
