Song

Undertow



I know what I wanted
I know what I wanted
I know how I wanted this to be

You go down to the water
Drink down of the water
Walk up off the waterleave it be

This is not my timebrother
It is cold in heaven
And I’m not sprouting wings.

I’m drowning
Me
I’m drowning
Meyeah

Brother can you see those birds?
They don’t look to heaven
They don’t need religionthey can see

They go down to the water
Drink down on the water
Fly up off the waterleave it be

This is not my timesister
It is cold in heaven
And no one’s coming after me

I’m drowning
Breathing ourselves
Me
Breathing ourselves
I’m drowning
Breathing ourselves
Meyeah

You know I am tired
Cold and bony tired
Nothing’s gonna save meI can see

I can’t say I’m fearful
I can’t say I’m not afraid
But I am not resistingI can see

I don’t need a heaven
I don’t need religion
I am in the place where I should be

I am breathing water
I am breathing water
You know a body’s got to breathe

I’m drowning
Breathing ourselves
Me
Breathing ourselves
I’m drowning
Breathing ourselves
Meyeah
