In waves the ships have all sailed to the sea
Well, do you wanna wait or leave with me tonight
Cross your heart and pray
The ocean will take us all the way in
First we are ever to fall off of the Earth
We must be the
First ones in the world to fall off of the Earth
We could be, soon as our needs are fed
You'll give in to me and the whole heartache
Makes me feel alive, same typical offering
And you always knew we make it all the way in
First we are ever to fall off of the Earth
We must be the
First ones in the world to fall off of the Earth
It could be soon, as
The carnivals empty, I need you to take me home
God help me, God help me, God help me, God
God help me, God help me, God help me, God
God help me, God help me, God help me, God
God help me, God help me, God help me, God
God help me, God help me, God help me, God
Well, do you wanna wait or leave with me tonight
Cross your heart and pray
The ocean will take us all the way in
First we are ever to fall off of the Earth
We must be the
First ones in the world to fall off of the Earth
We could be, soon as our needs are fed
You'll give in to me and the whole heartache
Makes me feel alive, same typical offering
And you always knew we make it all the way in
First we are ever to fall off of the Earth
We must be the
First ones in the world to fall off of the Earth
It could be soon, as
The carnivals empty, I need you to take me home
God help me, God help me, God help me, God
God help me, God help me, God help me, God
God help me, God help me, God help me, God
God help me, God help me, God help me, God
God help me, God help me, God help me, God

I totally agree with you cyanide and dougie, I see this as a reference to Columbus taking a big risk and crossing the sea. The big thing about sailing the ocean is you have to go with its flow, and I think Chino is basically saying how you two should just go with the flow of things.
"We could be... soon as our needs are fed"
First your ego and hers must be fed, superficiality in physical attraction and pleasure must exist between you two. Only then is it possible to break through the barrier and connect on a deeper level. But it is something you do not entirely know.
It is awesome how the Deftones relates a relationship to the journey of sailing the ocean, and while perilous physical exploration was prevalent back in the days of old, we now have to make the same journey, just someplace deeper--within our minds and in our hearts.
