As I Lay Dying - An Ocean Between Us Lyrics
How many years have we waited
for a ship that never set sail?
And how many days have we wasted
chasing a love that was not our own?
I sat ashore and watched
while my thoughts ran to the hills
my heart never reached the sea
with only delusions of an endless journey
I am left with an ocean between you and me
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
of someone else's dream
with the splendor of my aspirations closed in
how many years have we waited
for a ship that never set sail?
And how many days have we wasted
chasing a love that was not our own?
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
of someone else's dream

My older brother showed me this when I was in middle school. He’s cool as fuck.
I still remember the first time i heard this song. I was barely getting into metal and the first thing was the drums and it was at full volume with headphones. I thought i was literally going insane cus it was a LOT to take in
Попсовый припев портит

Go
How many years have we waited
For a ship that never set sail?
How many days have we wasted
Chasing a love that was not our own?
I sat ashore and watched as one
Hopeless wave crashed upon another
While my thoughts ran to the hills
My heart never, never reached the sea
With only delusions
Of an endless, endless journey
I am left with an ocean
Between you and me
An ocean between
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream, yeah
The gate to my heart
Has been well shut
With the splendor of
My aspirations closed in
How many years have we waited
For a ship that never set sail?
How many days have we wasted
Chasing a love that was not our own?
Is this your salvation?
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream
How many years?
How many years have we waited
For a ship that never, never set sail?
And how many days have we wasted
For a ship that never, never set sail?
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream
The reality of worlds is oceans between them.
Strangely enough, I came from a Sonic the Hedgehog AMV lmfao
I hope to make a new albums now
Such an amazing fucking song from an amazing album and band! Thank God they are back!!!!!
2007 any fucking one?
brian leve toi c lautonne
So who's ship never set sail? (:
As I Lay Dying... Is BadAsss
so fucking true
I want to hate that clean chorus part... but.. I.. just.. can't.. Fuck, it's too good and gets stuck in my head all the time
This band had the best lead guitar and drums I have ever seen. Literally no bad songs on any album. Amazing consistency. Nobody tries to overplay each other
@Jeremiah Babcock psht. Fuck outta here
@Jeremiah Babcock the holy trio of metalcore are: AILD, KSE, and Trivium. The 3 gods lead the metalcore genre hand in hand
@Robert where is All that Remains and BFMV in your equation?
Ι heard all AILD albums till Awakened and I can say that this song is their best song ever
Jeremiah Babcock bfmv are dead at this point, lol. ATR are very nice but not as consistent
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
2018 \m/
What’s next Tim 🤘🏻👌🏻
Algun br?
my favorite song from this elbum
Seeking fulfillment in anything/anyone but Christ can only result in hoplessness and despair
TheRealVarzens from where you said the very end that part
Bob Bob do you know what the word hypothetical means?
TheRealVarzens unfortunately you neglected your original comment apparently for a reason
Bob Bob so you *don't* know what a hypothetical means...
@TheRealVarzens depression and suicide rate is a lot higher in "atheist" countries.
A Lotion between you and me
you know what, fuck you and your fucking opinion, bitch
rot in hell
@Curious Giraffe That escalated quickly lol
Buffalo Bill begs to differ 😂
Their magnum opus
this is your salvation
Now that as I lay dying lead vocalist is out what are the future plans for as I lay dying
TGVSW thank you for the reply
FaceHound thank you for the reply
Just got tickets to see them at the Glass House. Let’s see how this goes!
Brittney Alcaraz you're so fucken lucky dude. They sold out so fucken quick. Uhhh record them please.
Too amazing.... omg.
1:07 You know you came here for this.
Vatian that's how I found it lmao typing this lyrics
Actually, 00:25 kicks the nuts off this bitch
You're god damned right I came here for that. Sick to the illest extreme. I'll die before I forget seeing them live. Fucking sick awesome show.
maoribrotha53 exactly. I headbang so hard to this every time it plays.
For sure 😍
To God: Is your salvation all you can give In exchange of you forsaking us all Made to live in pain and suffering Because you failed at perfection!!??!!
.
That's not true. Earth was originally intended for perfection until the fall of man, now imperfection is all there is here. God doesn't desire us to struggle or toil. its a result of the fall that came through adam. Christ is the second Adam who restores us too perfection.
Fall of man,free will,salvation...thats all metaphors for our being the whole biblical story never happened really.The story is happening in our lives
Dusty McFarland All that is left is for you to show any of that is actually true
Yeah god you fucking piece of shit failure
@Blue Goblin 2.0 agreed
CHRIST ROCK WOOOOHOOOO!
the consistency of those riffs
*inserts opinion of what specific nitpicky label this music should have because I'm a cunt and I care for some reason* /s

Hi! We're a pop-punk band from Italy and this is our new lyric video. It'd be awesome if you could watch it and if you like it share with you friends :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRki6EYtH8U
You guys are lame. Please don't post comments of this faggoty type of music on a song that has nothing to do with whatsoever. At least post the comment on something related or similar.....
.l. bijscht
Nice! Death metal is not death :-)
+Pavel Turek This is not Death Metal, hope that was sarcasm :)
+Pavel Turek stfu , it's metalcore with melodeath elements .
Still not Death Metal.
It has never died bro.
Pavel Turek but this is metalcore...
Holy fucking shit can't believe I forgot about you guys!
Easy to do when the lead singer is in jail for attempted murder... he threw away a great talent and great career!
okay chill
Rikki Morley not attempted murder. Conspiracy to commit
I was making it sound better for effect

Purgatory-Dark After Dawn[NEW SONG 2015]:
http://youtu.be/j_F8NwQVxAc
check this out
This band was really excellent... But I don't know how in the world they get away with the main riff in this song. It's the Creeping Death riff almost exactly.
Their main riff here is similar to the Creeping Death main riff but not exactly the same. The speed they play it at and the other riffs make it original. But I can see how you heard Metallica's influence in the song. Undeniable influence.
lemme see how you invent the wheel again. There is always. Always someone who has played something similarly. No listen and dont be a smart ass.
potatohead3333 hey. You're a smart guy with all those 3s :)
you can fucking commit toaster bath
they need a singer like maiden
That'd be pretty hectic
What if they get up? If they aren't laying down anymore, what happens then? Are they still dying? I also wonder how many people I will actually piss off with such an un-hurtful comment such as this one?
i dont think people will be mad at your comment, try something like
this isnt metal or band X is way better :p
Well I am glad that you didn't get mad at me. I really like this album, wasn't into much of there other songs; I've heard some and didn't like and haven't heard any other songs by them. Also the whole about the lead singer and his wife, dang that sucks; whether he hired someone or not, either way it sucks. I read up on some stuff about it and I guess his wife was a little "less than sane". Who knows if she's "sick or sane" ha pun intended.
@shiiina
that is amazing. i love you.
AS I LAY DYING- "An Ocean Between Us" > sj~13 #METALCORE
Fucking awsome bro
Damn good AILD!! Brilliant METALCORE!! #METAL UP
@Scotty J. Pure crushing sickness! Mancino crushes all others.
First time when I read that I said to myself: "Wut?! This is low-quality!"... After that I noticed that my headphones were broken because of the epicness.
Is this your salvation?
Is this all you can give?
I will not stand in reflection
Of someone else's dream.
FUCKIN SONG
Stephanie Delatierra such an amazing chorus
That amazing moment when you complete the 100 th like ;)
Yes thank you for the upload.
Good song just wish I could understand some of the words. Lil unclear
his mistake was trying to hire a hit man... HE SHOULD HAVE HIRED THE TERMINATOR NEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Haha I get it, but it's a bit harsh of a fan to say that. I'm not a fan, i just like some of the songs.
Alyssa Rolon da gummy bear of candycornia
Too bad Tim... I guess Austrian DM is gone now too.... Wish talented people werent so stupid. Now he will go down in history, not for his music, but for being a famous figure who tried to have his wife killed.
New song just dropped today bro, he gets his second chance
Thanks for the great quality post. Too bad lead singer Tim Lambesis got busted yesterday for solicitating to have his estranged wife murdered. And so the drama contiunues...
6 years later.
yes i love this song and FINALLY a good quality 1 :)
