Cover art for Ocean Size lyrics by Jane's Addiction

I think it's about wishing you were a stronger person. And dealing with being human and having a heart and having it broken. It's also about wishing you couldn't be broken, wishing you were stong enough to stand your ground. But also not hurting anyone like the ocean doesn't hurt the beach. idk. that's just what I gather.
