Take Me Under

I feel the water rising higher than my thoughts,

Slowly sinking, quickly drifting fully distraught

Every breath I take dissolves into the mist,

and I’m sinking through the quiet I will surely miss The waves

are changing course of what’s meant to be

Crashing down so hard I can barely see

When will someone finally rescue

me?

I reach for the surface but it drifts away,

Just like the world continues on and on and on Still,

something

in the deep keeps calling me to stay When the world keeps

you down,

Feeling like you’re gonna drown

Keep breathing even if it hurts

You have to let go to finally be heard

Take me under — if it means I learn to breathe,

teach my lungs to hold the weight I used to fear.

If I’m breaking just to find what’s left of me,

let the pressure turn the silence into something clear.

I am breathing underwater…to let the fear decide

— whether taking me under…

will teach me how I don’t have to hide…

(ooh, take me under)

I move through the current like a half‑formed ghost,

caught between what really hurts the most.

The tide pulls harder when I need it to let go,

but I’m learning how to float with no lifeboat I feel the

water pulling closer to my skin,

like it knows the parts of me I am keeping in.

Every breath I lose keeps dragging me back down,

but something in my mind says I’m not going to drown.

I reach for the surface but it drifts away,

Just like the world continues on and on and on

Still, something in the deep keeps calling me to stay

When the world keeps you down,

Feeling like you’re just going to drown Keep breathing even if it

hurts You have to drown if you ever want to finally be

first

Take me

under! Take me under!

Take

me under now…

If the waves bring me back alive If I’m meant to find

a new way to survive,

I’ll breathe beneath the waves and finally open up my eyes.

Take me under — if it means I learn to breathe,

teach my lungs to hold the weight I used to fear.

If I’m breaking just to find what’s left of me,

let the pressure turn the silence into something clear. I

am

breathing underwater…to let the fear decide—

whether taking me under…

will teach me how I don’t have to hide…

(ooh, underwater)

Just take me under…

Just take me under…
