Ruled by Rumour Lyrics by Ruben Hein

OCEANS

2022

[Verse 1]
How to stay anchored when the wind picks up?
Steady on the ground
How to keep breathing when the air gets thick?
When water fills your lungs
Currents get stronger, silence growing loud
Stay away from rubble
Keeps dragging us
Keeps dragging us down
[Chorus]
We're ruled by rumour
Swimming in white water
It has a hold on us
Thrown around like driftwood
Talk to me, talk to me, hold on to me
Swimming in white water
Cool the tempest on a burning sea
[Verse 2]
I have a vision of a paradise
And I won't let go of that dream
And this is a hunger that can never be
Too strong for me
Too strong for me
[Chorus]
Wе're ruled by rumour
Swimming in white watеr
It has a hold on us
Thrown around like driftwood
Talk to me, talk to me, hold on to me
Swimming in white water
Cool the tempest on a burning sea
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
We're ruled by rumour
Swimming in white water
It has a hold on us
Thrown around like driftwood
Talk to me, talk to me, hold on to me
Swimming in white water
Cool the tempest on a burning sea
[Outro]
Looking for a lifeline
For me, for me
Swimming in white water
For me
Looking for a lifeline
For me, for me
Looking for a lifeline
Cool the tempest on a burning sea
For me
Looking for a lifeline
Looking for a lifeline
Looking for a lifeline
