(Verse 1)
The waves come crashing onto the shore
Beating the earth but what is it for
It’s not like this planet has done anything evil
Unlike the sins committed by all of her people
Or at least this man’s echoing mistakes
I should be gone going at this rate
And that’s all that I can think about
Watching the tide come in and out
The ocean is such a temperamental fiend
High and low ebb and flow ever-changing being
A rhythm that makes it understandable
But unpredictable to be treacherous and unmanable
So similar to the nature of me
The nature of man everything that I see
Freedom and slavery joy and tragedy
Often insignificant is all I can be
(Hook) X2
One drop of water in the entire ocean
One grain of sand across the shore
One shinning star up in the sky
One single person in all mankind
(Bridge)
One
One
One
One
(Verse 2)
He’s got the whole world in his hands
But not like those kid’s song man
Those childhood days are far long gone
What’s going on right now that’s what I’m on
Strife and suffering burning fire hot
Drop after drop of love it wont stop
But it’s not enough all that we got
Cause sometimes it feels like we didn’t do squat
Pain burning in to anger and hate
Spreading to destroy, not to create
Two steps forward and one step back
Sometimes even the opposite of that
Before things get better we’re making it worse
In need we have no choice but to converse
To plead to cry God save us
Drop into the ocean of mercy with trust
(Hook) X2
One drop of water in the entire ocean
One grain of sand across the shore
One shinning star up in the sky
One single person in all mankind
(Bridge)
One
One
One
