Lyrics
I sink back below as the water surrounds
I feel a sense of descent as the water surrounds me.
You'd known all this trouble could bring me down
You were aware that these difficulties could bring me down.
Find something sweet to say
Find something positive to say.
And keep it to yourself
Keep that positive sentiment to yourself.
Let it get out
Allow it to escape, don't suppress it.
Keeping it down
Suppressing the positive emotions.
I'll sink back below til you change me enough
I will descend again until you transform me sufficiently.
Fade out, lose our sight as it changes to dusk
Fading away, losing sight as it becomes dusk.
With every single word
Every word implying our separation.
That says we've come undone
Indicating that we've fallen apart.
Not making a sound
Silence, don't let me go now.
Don't let me leave now
Urge not to leave in this moment.
You look as if it's something I should know
You appear as if it's something I should be aware of.
The undertow we built into a home
The difficulties we've faced have become a foundation.
I never want to know
Expressing a desire not to know.
If I even love you now
Uncertainty about whether love exists now.
You left it here
You left it here.
Thinking it'd be saved somehow
Believing it would be preserved somehow.
I sink back below as the current surrounds
Submerging again as the current surrounds.
See me, and feel that all of our actions were bound
Recognition and feeling that our actions were interconnected.
I can't remember which
Unable to recall the specific way it went wrong.
Way that it went wrong
The direction of the mistake is lost in memory.
Some memory drowned
Some memories are submerged.
I can't make it out
Unable to discern those memories.
You look as if it's something I had known
You seem familiar as if it's something I had known.
The undertow we built into a home
The difficulties became a foundation for a home.
I never want to know
Reiterating a desire not to know.
If I even love you now
Questioning the existence of love now.
You left it here
You left it here.
Thinking it'd be saved somehow
Believing it would be preserved somehow.
No, do I even love you now?
Expressing uncertainty about love.
And I don't see
Unable to see a resolution.
That I'll ever figure out
Doubtful about figuring it out.
We're turning into something
Transformation occurring, holding onto principles.
And you have held the line
You maintained a boundary or standard.
Will you turn me into someone
Will you change me into someone who handles everything calmly?
Who takes it all in stride?
Adaptation to challenges without losing composure.
I gotta know
Expressing a need for knowledge.
I've gotta tell you
Must convey something.
If I could ever
If I could ever...
If I could tell you
If I could tell you...
Oh, no if I even love you now
Uncertainty about current feelings of love.
You left it here
You left it here.
Thinking it'd be saved somehow
Believing it would be preserved somehow.
