Under The Waves

Under the waves, deep in the drift
I can feel the salt upon my skin
Under the waves, falling away
I no longer see the rings of rain
I want to feel it, if just to know it’s true
Look me over- it’s just a surface wound
Don’t pay to fight it; can’t change the color blue
All I wanted was to impress you
Under the waves, caught in a dream
Lover, can you hear me breathing?
Under the waves, now that I’m giving up
I can let the current carry me
I want to feel it, if just to know it’s true
Look me over- it’s just a surface wound
Don’t pay to fight it; can’t change the color blue
All I wanted was to impress you
And if I catch myself crying
For things I cannot control
I’ll head on back to the wall
Where tears are invisible
Under the waves, I know who I am
I don’t need to spin the story
Under the waves, down in the deep
I no longer see the rings of rain
