Hey Ocean
Hey Ocean, I know it's been a while.
But I'm back on your beaches
Cause I've needed a smile.
Hey Ocean, I've been stuck on dry land.
Could you help me address that?
Wash away all the sand.
Hey Ocean, I really dig your style.
But it's been a while,
And behind my smile
There's a stormy commotion
On my sea of emotions
I've been free of devotion,
Because I've been devoted to me.
Say, Ocean, it's a beautiful day.
And your sparkling motions
Beckon me to come play.
So hey Ocean, I think I want to dive in.
Gonna buy me a snorkel;
Gonna buy me some fins.
Hey Ocean, are you doing fine?
Is your peace of mind
Fortified by wine?
Are you ready to venture
Out beyond your indenture,
And allay the calenture
That I've felt since your debut?
Hey Ocean, you're a little too vast,
And I'm taking on water
Just a little too fast.
Hey Ocean, I thought I wanted to play.
But it's getting real choppy
And it's too cold today.
Hey Ocean, does this mean goodbye?
Should I turn and fly
After all these tries?
Are we better apart than
Stuck together disheartened?
Guess I better depart then,
‘Cause I've got sand in shoes.
But I'm back on your beaches
Cause I've needed a smile.

Hey Entry, this might sound animist
But I'm writing this comment
'Cause your name's on my list
Hey Author, this one sounds like a song
Maybe seventies folk rock
Is where it would belong
Hey Author, I really dig this style
It goes on a while,
But it's got some guile
Makes me want to put taper
To some manuscript paper
Scritchy scratchin' a scraper
Because it wants a real melody.
But hey, Author, I think I'll cut this one short
Don't have that much I'm sayin'
Not that much to report
Hey Entry, wonder who wrote you
Got a lovely hue
Three-part story too
Would you go well concisely?
I'm just asking you nicely—
Thinkin' so imprecisely,
But of eight, you're number two.

I like this, and I wonder if it's a pony reference, with the name of Ashleigh Ball's band.
This has a similar progression to "Pumpkinhead" to me, where the speaker gradually learns his own limitations. Some of the word choices ended up being kind of odd, like debut and indenture. I'm split on whether this is someone's internal conflict or whether it's an allegory for a failed romance, but it works either way.

If you ever get a chance to see Hey Ocean live, definitely do; they’ve got a cool sound and Ashley also plays rock flute!

Some things must run deeper than one's mere speech,
So let's watch as the sand is cast up on the beach,
And wavedrift is written out line upon line,
From the sea which, like Homer's, is dark as the wine.

Boy do I have good news for you! (I really should rerecord a better version)
>>Pascoite
Yeah, it's about coming back to an old romance and trying to make things work out this time, but in the end it just isn't meant to be.
