Being As An Ocean - Catch The Wind (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

Lyrics
These are dark days
Confusion is running rampant
Fear only fuels the hate
I refuse to be afraid
Won’t let others’ ignorance dictate the path I take
One thing is for sure:
Real connection is dying
Honest love is the cure
Endless springs will cleanse the land,
If we beckon them come forth
Maybe all the pain that comes is just a part of this
Endure the weight
Our bones may break
But we can’t give in
I know that we’ve all been hurting,
But love will heal and mend
Instead of cursing the storm,
Turn and catch the wind
We have all felt our hearts beating
A little faster, ego begs our retreating
(But) if the pain of the pain of another shakes you awake,
There’s no shame in letting your heart break
We can give more than we take
Untouched potential, seal or heal our fate
I know there’s got to be a higher meaning
In digging in when we feel like fleeing
We all have suffered
We have all been bruised
Once we choose to give up
Is when we lose
We can’t hold back the water
But we can learn how to swim
Don’t be tossed by Life’s storms
When you catch the wind

You have all saved us, more than you know

[@justinedwards7393]

Your not alone don't ever forget and don't ever give in

[@robjamesewing]

Remember that YOU saved your life. Being as an Ocean may be the soundtrack, but you make the decision to take care of yourself and it is a powerful realization that YOU can do it. Don't give up and keep going!

[@acantha2615]

[@melindamyers3794]

Someone special, a man I worked with named Dan, gave me this song as something to help conceptualize who he is. I miss ya Dan and hope to stumble across you again!

[@joshualafleur3376]

I like that they have moved more towards their roots in this song. I wasn't a huge fan of the last album they released. But I appreciate their experimentation.

[@BeingAsAnOcean]

🤘😁

[@kristofferhauge589]

Agreed, I had hoped for this so much

[@JohnnyPrintOnDemandBrasil]

Totally Agree.

[@MilklnTheFridge]

For me personally they don't miss, loved every venture

[@basshead160]

100% agree. I love Michaels clean vocals that compliment Joel's vocals.

[@jharv32]

This is the BAAO we all miss.

[@SolsticioHardcore]

MELODIC HARDCORE IS BACK

[@beeggreen]

I'm not crying, I'm weeping. There's a difference.

[@BeingAsAnOcean]

we love you

[@beeggreen]

@@BeingAsAnOcean Love you too, Joel, Michael, Tyler, Ralph and Garrett. 🖤

[@lhard27]

Joels Vocals are on point, you can feel the emotion in his voice.

[@jesse-4rm500]

I don't know what I'd without Being as an Ocean and The Amity Affliction

[@cinarnunez3067]

Uhhh yeah, time to get sad again baby!!

[@Yourhandinmine]

Let’s over come these obstacles in life together as a community. Restart this life not living in hatred but finding unity and love for one another! We never will have to fight alone nor feel alone with community! BAAO is our community to be used as a platform to share love, give compassion, and care for one another unconditionally! LOVE will heal and mend! I love you all!🖤

[@BeingAsAnOcean]

THIS☝️ This is fucking important and what a community in music is all about

[@derekgeldreich7760]

I think that is the most heartfelt, sincere comment I've ever read. And every word is so true. I really hope we will get there someday.

[@Yourhandinmine]

@@derekgeldreich7760 same here my brother if we keep pushing the message maybe one day things can change but we will never know until we fight for it! 🖤🌪

[@derekgeldreich7760]

Definitely will never stop pushing for it or hoping.

[@Yourhandinmine]

@@derekgeldreich7760 Don’t ever give up because I promise you true, pure and unconditional love will be the key to everything for us! One day we will hopefully all live in a world that sees no race, color, or gender in hate or fear! We will all come together as a whole and that is true community!

[@ShadowRamsFan]

I hope this song by Being as an Ocean would be part of the band's sixth album, I hope the title of the album would be called A New Desire. I hope this album would be released through either Solid State, Roadrunner or Spinefarm Records

[@hello2444]

Protect this band at all costs

[@ferdinandgoor7574]

KZbin, give them a million plays now

[@Rizz3n]

I can definitely feel and hear the older stuff in this one which I really dig. Excited for what's next

[@BeingAsAnOcean]

Same

[@bluecollarmetal7]

If Joel is not reciting an angry poetry its not BAAO. You can say it is and you have all the power to do whatever you guys want. but clearly this here is BAAO and its the reason for me to come and listen.

[@NAHollier7]

The contrast between Joel & Michael is magical. This is the BAAO I know and love

[@mynamesvitti]

Loved this mix of the past w/ the new BAAO. 💛

[@marcanixb.4909]

I luved that song right away when released 2 years ago. Would luv to have a nu album with those old vibes. Please @Being as an Ocean keep releasin nu stuff. 🥰🥰🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸 I am lookin almost every month for a nu release of urs.

[@mlnm1992]

I love you forever BAAO, you've shone me a light that I will forever be grateful of. thanks for the music, the words, and the endless love

[@jordi6052]

This is absolutely breathtaking. It really feels fresh and nostalgic at the same time to me, lyrics hits so hard and vocals have so much emotion. If this is the direction they're taking for a new album, i'm all aboard it.

[@aaronguzmanmolina6748]

This is the prettiest musical video i´ve never seen before

[@Beefytony]

the amount this band has comforted me in both ups and downs. The loneliness will never be the end

[@sing2teach1]

Adore this music video! The quality of the filming is amazing. Such gorgeous scenery to add to the depth of emotional impact in the lyrics. Michael's chorus immediately sticks in my head, and Joel's spoken/screams are clear and passionate. This song is so perfect for today. Just what the community needed. Blessings to all, may your album and future be lit!

[@stigm1318]

As a person who came to aknowledge that is depressed in my 27th year. I find this song rly hitting every little part of being I love you guys. You make my life better. You make me respect ME ❤

[@BeingAsAnOcean]

we love that, and we love you ❤️ always here for you

[@shanemallinson1879]

Find the thing that sparks your soul dude and you will rise out of this like a phoenix. You are stronger than you will ever realize. 🖤

[@chrissbouchard5898]

You change a part of my life ! Im a better man now thanks for all you do ! Support from the Québec

[@rflcns_3872]

Holy Hell, this song is by far one of the best Songs from BAAO, it combines the new and old style in a way that is incredible!

[@BackGardenBushcraft]

Yessss boys! Joels vocals 😍

[@ha11oweenrsix73]

such an underrated band , this song is a master piece

[@justifiedroundhouse]

I used to love Being as an Ocean and I still do. Growing up in my later teenage years they helped me push through a lot I didn't think I ever would have. Unfortunately, now that I've found true love Being as an Ocean hits in a different way and it hits an old home I almost shed sheer tears to Every. Single. Time. & I'm glad i was able to push through. 🖤

[@Deathcoreee]

Music takes a huge part in my life. And so are you. ❤️

[@javierivanreyes8608]

High key dying to hear this live, if the US ever gets its act together that is lol.

[@BeingAsAnOcean]

High key tryin' to play this live for you all!!!🤘

[@sp00g37]

[@-vart-]

Been a fan since the Dear G-d era. This band is a soundtrack for my life a lot of the time and they only keep getting better.

[@smithsmithBE]

Being as an ocean was the last concert I saw before covid. After the past year, I really needed a new song. Thank you for this, it's really beautiful.

[@ThePulga1000]

this band keeps touching my heart.. thank you for that...

[@CDeeez94]

"Instead of cursing the storm, Turn and catch the wind"' Felt that...

[@Jas0_]

The emotions in this song. Just chills all over man. I'm glad I found you guys years ago

[@monsieurbreakdown4814]

Jesus it's been a loooong time since BAAO gave me chills like that. What a beautiful and powerful piece of art, feels like old BAAO perfectly fused with their actual way of writing music.

[@blackskater121]

This was so beautiful. I love the progession of everyone in this band. Joel and Michael are spot on, all the instruments vibe so well, if I could cry, I would be sobbing right now. I can't wait to hear more!

[@lily-annethompson6154]

thank you for everything, your music heals souls

[@austinbrodeur22314]

Being as an ocean hit my heart with the hardest part, being with the same girl for 8 years...and ending right back at the start with this song here to relate to again. Thank you
