Under the Waves

I let the waves wash away the pain I couldn't feel
And when the rain comes back again, the wounds it made would heal
Through wretched months I slaved away, praying I would make the grade
But I couldn't hang on one more day

Bathe me, save me, make me know, make me know

I am home under the waves
I have grown so fond of my grave
Oooh, you've let me drown
Oooh, I've let you down

I take the pain suffering until my lungs collapse
And drain away, nothing left and now I know I'm trapped
Below the surface I am home, soaked and wrinkled to the bone
And pretty sure I'll always be alone

Bathe me, save me, don't let go, don't let go

I am home, under the waves
I have grown too fond of my grave
Oooh, I need to breathe
Oooh, you've made me see

Sand as far as I can see
Darkness is surrounding me
Listen to the crashing tides
Sleeping til the end of time

I fade to black, taking back every word I said
I face the facts with a lack of breath until I'm dead
Complacent in my mind, denying everything I find
Now I know that by this water I am not defined

(Bathe me, save me, make me know, make me know)
I am home under the waves
I have grown so fond of my grave
Oooh, you've let me drown
Oooh, I've let you down, again

Bathe me, save me, now I know, now I know
