Yer not the ocean!

Again, I’m talking to the lake
I’m standing on the rocks
Yer not the ocean
I’m better to watch
Britney invisible or the stranger in myself
than a wall of water
just hitting the shelf
Yer not the ocean
You’re up to my toes
Yer not the ocean
You’re not even close
Though you’re so real
and you’ve more youth everyday
and you can think and feel
and get out of your own way
and though I’m nothing
you are just a lake
made to take it
and take and take and take
Yer not the ocean
I’m standing on my toes
Yer not the ocean
You’re not even close
Yer not the ocean
You’re up to my chin
Yer not the ocean
You’re not coming in
You’re not coming in
You’re not coming in
You’re not coming in
Yer not the ocean
You’re up to my chin
Yer not the ocean
You’re not coming in
You’re not coming in
You’re not coming in
You’re not coming in

"Yer not the ocean" - The Tragically Hip

K well my first beef is trying to find these lyrics were a pain in the butt cause when you google the song it doesn't come up as yer not the ocean, which is the proper spelling of the song title. but whatev's

I used to have a love hate relationship with the tragically hip.
I grew up in kingston so I am expected to love them. but I didnt.
Not until I was much older, in Ottawa. They grew on me.
I was once at a hip concert in ottawa in like 2001 after spending a hot hot day drinking rum in the backyard of Sean's house.
I fainted in the crowd. I just remember feeling lightheaded and saying to sean, I'm going to faint. then the next thing I know I'm waking up and people are all crowded aro und me giving me water.
I had bit my lip when I fainted too. OUCH.
I have fainted more than once in my life so I was kind of used to it. sucks though.
I really like this song. that's my point.
