Devin Townsend - Ocean Machines Lyrics






I see the world in a hole
I've known this feeling before
I don't even know why I'm here
I don't even know who I am
Oh my machine
My machine

I keep a watch out at night
(I've seen the world in a hole)
I'll go whenever it's right
(I've seen the light)

I don't even care who you are
I don't even know why I'm here

I've found a way through the ocean machines
When it is time, we will know what it means
Life finds a way and that always will be
When it is time we will see what we'll see
I guarantee

I went alone all I need
Time, it's time, it's almost time
You come... you'll go... you'll never feel it

Signal!
I guarantee

    song Ocean Machine from album ass-sordid demos

  13. M.... ....

    I've liked this since AD 1476 and I have written references from Dark-aged people to attest this and historical relics from the time because I'm so hip and care that you care I heard it before you and I heard it before time and the universe and the cosmos so eat a big cherry flavoured dick piece

  14. N.... B....

    FUCKIN LOVE U DEV PLZ KEEP DA SHIT GOIN MY BA

  15. c.... ....

    That main riff is so sick. Makes you want to move.

  16. J.... N....

    Wonder why this wasn't on ocean machine the album. This sounds pretty damn good for a demo.

  17. A.... W....

    why the shitting heck have I never bothered listening to this before?! wow! (long term Devvy fan too!)

  18. P.... ....

    This is a demo!? Sounds like a full-blown track instead of a demo piece!

    P.... ....

    +PlanarCollapse2 I think I remember reading somewhere that Devin had intended for this to be on the Ocean Machines album and the only reason it wasn't included was because the album was already too long.

    P.... ....

    Some artists can only wish they had album tracks as good as this demo...

    P.... ....

    Fo Real!

    P.... ....

    Same thing with Man...

  19. c.... ....

    N.... B....

    Calm down snowflake

  21. Z.... P....

    I'm thinking this is noisescapes. devins project before ocean machine.

  22. T.... ....

    2:09 bass line from Ozzy's tune No More Tears?

    T.... ....

    Yes sound like...

  23. M.... ....

    @wykydtronUK no need to talk like that. I love Devin but I find this song rather boring. (I didn't click dislike though :P )

  24. D.... ....

    Devin Towsend has infinite masterpieces sounds, i love this amazing song!

  25. h.... ....

    Devin Townsend: king of metal and best (metal) singer ever !. This song should have been on the ocean machine album, damn ! Cheers from Germany !

  26. L.... ....

    Looks like lasoogney is trolling again.

  27. l.... ....

    This main riff is ripped off from that Ozzy Osborne song.

  28. a.... ....

    The melodies in these verses are so amazing. Not that the chorus melody is even kind of bad...in fact, it's amazing, but the verse melodies set it up so brilliantly.

  29. g.... ....

    @damo666smith I've seen Devy live like 10 or 11 times so far. Maybe 5 or 6 times during the SYL days. Then all his stops to San Francisco when he started touring for DTP :)

  30. g.... ....

    @damo666smith 95, 100... it's all good. Devy continues to be my favorite artist of all time. He never fails to surprise me with each new release. Yet he's so humble about it all.

  31. L.... K....

    woops! accidentally disliked! thought it was the download button XD

  32. J.... M....

    @Masbirreo Thank you for talking about Ravel :)

  33. J.... M....

    I don't know if there's a word in the English language that could accurately describe how epic this song is.

    J.... M....

    EPIC SHIT

  34. J.... M....

    @glui2001 I always think that, too! This is such an incredible song, I have never been able to figure out why he doesn't put it on an actual album or EP.

  35. D.... H....

    fuckin awesome. im mad i haven't heard these demos yet. but no longer. at some point in my life im gonna go to a music store and buy every single fuckin thing this great man has put out, for making my life just that much better

  36. g.... ....

    This demo is better than 95% of the polished releases out there!

  37. G.... T....

    Devin deserves having zero dislikes

  38. P.... T....

    Love this song

  39. R.... W....

    I just got the good quality of this song. 360p doesn't do it justice!

  40. G.... ....

    The first riff sounds like No More Tears by Ozzy just faster

  41. I.... ....

    Interesting - the chugging and the grooves and the occasional funk rhythms suggest something that Devy would put under the SYL label, but the melodies and atmospheric work are closer to the Ocean Machine material. I don't know if there was a clear transitional period between said styles, but this sounds like it.

    I.... ....

    InvisibleSandwichTM the album ocean machine only came to be because of the songs Wasn't heavy enough to be on the City album

  42. G.... ....

    One of the riffs in this sounds similar to No More Tears by Ozzy

  43. A.... M....

    I cant find this song anywhere! Where can I get it? :(

  44. N.... ....

    SUCH AN UNDERRATED ARTIST!!!!! Kick ass prog metal song!

  45. D.... ....

    Noo nothing needs changing on it. Its perfect as it is, it belongs on Ass Sordid Demos and thats where it should stay - In my opinion!

  46. D.... ....

    Its a shame, really. Everyone bums "The New Black" and stuff by SYL, which.. Im not a big fan of. Everything after City just didn't appeal to me Devy wise, he went weird and started doing things like Vampira. Which did seem fun, but im not used to Devin being anything but angsty, overly dramatic and just plain insane/genius. The mad scientist of music.

  47. D.... ....

    One of mine too! Though i could say that about a lot of his songs..

  48. m.... ....

    This song is a masterpiece, yet did not even make it past the stage of demo. That shows just how unbelievably talented Devin is...

  49. A.... C....

    This song is strange. I can't stop listening to it, and it brings memories of the summer (even though I didn't hear it 'til maybe a month ago) along with a sense of hope and purpose.

  50. 0.... ....

    at 6:15 he kinda remembers me alexi laiho from children of bodom

  51. d.... b....

    peavey 5150

  52. H.... W....

    ok thanks, i want his sound haha

  53. w.... ....

    great pic montage

  54. w.... ....

    mesa boogie well for the new shit

  55. m.... ....

    Devin is monumental

  56. l.... ....

    holy shit, i'm just hearing this for the first time

  57. H.... W....

    does anyone know what amp heads he uses to record?

  58. D.... ....

    this song is so amazing...
    part of my fav collection.

    Devin = GOD

  59. s.... ....

    One of my favorite Devin songs.
    Thus one of the best songs ever:)

  60. a.... ....

    Awesome track. But it dosn't fit in the ocean machine album.

  61. p.... ....
