Description There’s an ocean falling from the sky.
And I’m going to swim in it.
Perhaps I’m mad. But I don’t mind.
Just for a little bit.

After all, the ocean’s mad,
It’ll never learn,
Why does it go up at all?
If it’ll only then return

I’m standing in the ocean,
It swirls about my feet,
But all too soon it drains away,
Leaving toes and mushy peat.

I think I’ll go inside now.
Insanity might be fun,
But it gets your feet quite dirty,
When all’s drenched and done.

I found the opening line:

There’s an ocean falling from the sky.
And I’m going to swim in it.

Very powerful, but everything else after it just didn't live up to it.
