The Bravery: The Ocean Meaning

The Ocean Lyrics

I climbed up a mountain, and looked off the edge
At all of the lives that I never have led
There's one where I stayed with you, across the sea

   I think it is about a couple of things.
   Its about Realizing the mistakes you've made, wether that's with someone or something. The regret of not for-filling the things you might have accomplished.

   Powerful song.
