Story behind the song
Passenger is a metaphor for escaping a difficult reality by retreating into another world — one that initially appears beautiful and safe, but gradually becomes just as dangerous and overwhelming.
Lyrics
I saw you crashing someone's couch,
Hiding far ashore,
to forget reality,
And all that came before.
I saw you break upon the waves,
As they came crashing through,
Sinking ever deeper,
In an ocean wide and blue.
In an ocean wide and blue,
In an ocean, yes, an ocean,
In an ocean wide and blue.
I saw you in a submarine,
With nowhere left to go,
As a passenger in deepest dreams,
As a passenger sinking low.
But then I called your name!
You drifting far away,
Holding on to your fragile hand,
To pull you up again.
All the way up again.
All the way up again.
I saw you when the bubble burst,
With rivers running down your cheeks,
As a passenger back to surface,
As a passenger who found life again.
In an ocean wild and blue,
In an ocean, yes, an ocean,
In an ocean wild and blue.
The ocean takes but doesn't care,
The ocean, yes, the ocean,
The ocean could be anywhere.
The ocean could be anywhere.
