The single focuses on the magic moment before a human being’s transition from life into death. It appears as a junction: Looking back at a whole life span while struggling with the uncertainty of what is to come now: Is it a nowhere or a somewhere?

Lyricist and singer Michael Vahl comments on the genesis of ‘Oceans Of Time’:
‘I like working with intertextuality and have been doing so in almost all my lyrics since we started the band back in 2007. Interpreting and conveying a text or media into something new has become a big part of our lyrical expression, and that is also the case in Oceans of Time.
I remember seeing “American Beauty” in my early teenage years – probably just around when the band started. I was completely absorbed by the ending monologue, which is basically a speech about the beauty of life – delivered by a dying person with a stoic inner peace.
In the lyrics for Oceans of Time, I revisit the monologue – but this time out of the context from the movie, which makes it even more open for interpretation.’

Lyrics:

Always heard your life would flash by
Right in front of your eyes
the second before you die

I should feel sorry to let go
But it’s hard to stay so sad
With all the beauty in the world
Think I’m going mad

It’s an ocean of time
A second that will never end
To drown what I am
I’m going nowhere
Oceans of time
I’m drowning, fading, leaving, breaking
I welcome my fate
It’s going nowhere

So as I, as I start to let go
All I see is memories
My fading history

I should feel sorry to let go
But it’s hard to stay so sad
With all the beauty in the world
Think I’m going mad

It’s an ocean of time
A second that will never end
To drown what I am
I’m going nowhere
Oceans of time
I’m drowning, fading, leaving, breaking
I welcome my fate
It’s going nowhere

Don’t know where I’m going
Want to catch this moment
Stuck in the oceans of time

Don’t know where I’m going
Want to catch this moment
Stuck in the oceans of time

To be young

I remember watching falling stars
with my back to the grass
Looking my first love in her eyes
Nothing hits you as hard as life

Looking my first love in her eyes
Nothing hits you as hard as life

It’s an ocean of time
A second that will never end
To drown what I am
I’m going nowhere
Oceans of time
I’m drowning, fading, leaving, breaking
I welcome my fate
It’s going nowhere

Don’t know where I’m going
Want to catch this moment
Stuck in the oceans of time

To be young

Don’t know where I’m going
Want to catch this moment
Stuck in the oceans of time

To be young
