  • "Black & Blue" by Being As An Ocean (Official Audio Release)
    Have you ever heard that love is a metaphor?
    A metaphor for the taste of the bottom, the fall to the floor
    I fall to the floor
    I remember me and you
    I remember what you did
    I remember being numb
    I remember feeling sick. For the taste of the bottom, the fall to the floor
    Have you ever heard that love is a metaphor?
    For the way you failed me, and now, I’m failing you
    Like the serpent’s tongue
    Like the storm that shakes me
    Like the hand that beats me until I’m black and blue
    Like the autumn chill
    Like the love that failed me
    Let the earth remove me
    Black & blue
    Have you ever heard that death is a metaphor?
    A metaphor for:
    “What if I’m not good enough?
    What if I’m not strong enough?
    What if I’m not kind enough for what happens next, for what happens then?”

    The music from Being As An Ocean is like therapy. First, it makes me cry. In fact, it makes me cry a lot. And then... one day when completely unexpected, it makes me smile.. like a feeling of bittersweet liberation. Thank you.

      Not quite imo, this stuff is nice but nowhere near as emotionally driving or lyrically strong as Salute e Vita or Death's Great Black Wing... Definitely a different sound though so different tastes different people I guess

    • @abhaykumarsingh7081

    Pink & Red, Black & Blue
    Floating through the darkness, they seemed to Glow
    And fade away when morning came (OK)
    As though each of my problems would slip away, Dissolve
    Thorns, The powers that be
    Suddenly, I was alone, Blacktop
    I saw before me, a bright red light, and silently I stood
    Waiting for morning to come

    I listened to this song on repeat when I'd walk to the library in AZ to fill out job applications for about 3 months.. Away from my other half.. Stuck in my own head without a working cell phone.. Sitting at rock bottom.. I appreciate the work and words placed into your new album. If not for you and two other bands I'd probably be dead right about now..

  • @bradsuhrbier3647
    @bradsuhrbier3647 7 лет назад +24

    Pink and red is literally the calm before the storm that is black and blue if you think about it. Pink and red morning skies mean that there will be no storms during the day, but this song is about love gone wrong and changing, and black and blue skies are stormy skies...

    • @hansolzy
      @hansolzy 6 лет назад +2

    • @bradsuhrbier3647

      Hansol tyler ross, the writer of the song mentioned in a behind the barricade podcast that there is a symbolism in the lyrics and title of this song that relates to the album art, i think thats it:)he said it isnt obvious

    Have you ever heard that love is a metaphor?
    A metaphor for the taste of the bottom
    The fall to the floor
    I fall to the floor
    I remember me and you
    I remember what you did
    I remember being numb
    I remember feeling sick
    For the taste of the bottom, the fall to the floor
    Have you ever heard love is a metaphor for the way you failed me?
    And now I'm failing you
    (I want you to listen very, very carefully)
    Like the serpents tongue
    Like the storm that shakes me
    Like the hand that beats me
    Until I'm black and blue
    Like the autumn chill
    Like the love that failed me
    Let the earth remove me
    Black and blue
    Black and blue
    Have you ever heard that death is a metaphor?
    A metaphor for, "What if I'm not good enough?
    What if I'm not strong enough?

    Like the hand that beats me
    Until I'm black and blue
    Like the autumn chill
    Like the love that failed me
    Let the earth remove me
    Black and blue
    Black and blue
    Like the serpents tongue (Like the serpents tongue)
    Like the storm that shakes me (Like the storm that shakes me)
    Like the hand that beats me
    The hand that beats me black and blue
    Like the autumn chill (Like the autumn chill)
    Like the love
    Lo-ove, lo-ove
    Lo-o-ove
    Black and blue

    Seriously this album is gonna be an introduction to a whole new world of Being as an Ocean, the other song previews are up on iTunes and sadly though about 6 tracks are instrumentals/interludes but they sound effective. Also "The Powers That Be" which is written in reverse is LEGITIMATELY REVERSED in the audio, I can't wait for this

    This helped me get past a very vampire-like history of a relationship I had with another person. I hope they're doing well but they sucked so much life out of me. My hope dwindled to nothing for the longer time and I finally sofa enough is enough and even OK has made a huge second step to being done with this pain and thought that they hold my heart. I have full control of my perception. Let go of pain and grab on to understanding and grace
