lyrics

I feel the water getting deep
It collects around my feet
And it's never showing any signs of slowing

If it calls for fight-or-flight
I'm not sure if I'll survive
One false-step could sweep me in its undertow-ing

And if I thought I was fine before
All this time i was just better without knowing

Now the tide's up to my knees
As the wind becomes a breeze
At this rate it's safe to say there's no return

While I say my last goodbyes
I trace the outline of your eyes
To save myself will be my very last concern

And if I thought I was fine before
Now I'll surely come to get what I deserve

So, wait for me
Until I drown in the sea
And when I, don't make it back this time
You'll find you're better off below than without me

The stream is rushing at my waist
I swear I've lost my sense of taste
Minutes pass until I'm gone and swept away

A look of calmness on my face
As our fingers interlace
I'm unconvinced that everything will be okay

And if I thought I was fine before
"How" and "why" are words I never thought I'd say

Standing neck deep in the drink
I have to stop myself and think
Is this the way I want to leave the world behind

Soon I'll be in over my head
So many things we left unsaid
But i guess that's just the way the stars align

And if I thought I was fine before
It took a flood for me to see that i was blind

So, wait for me
Until I drown in the sea
And when I, don't make it back this time
You'll find you're better off below than without me
