Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here I am
Floating in emerald sea
Keep me dancing
Keep me as still as can be
And I try to keep the balance right
And I try, but it feels like wasted time
[Verse 2]
But these heavy hands
They're pulling me down on my chest
Latching on, coloring all of my flesh
Quietly, you hover over me
And I fight, but it feels like wasted time
[Verse 3]
Feels like wasted time
[Verse 4]
Say goodnight
I know that I'm swallowed in sea
We collide, colors that devour me
Just say goodnight
I'm already down
And I cry
Already down
[Verse 5]
Already down
And I cry
Already down
[Verse 6]
And I try
And I try
But it feels like wasted
