The Itch

I am trying to relax

A deep breath, I'm underwater

There is a jewel sitting on the riverbed

I am trying to relax

I dive down

Through cold black

Surrounded by bright fish, I lie on the riverbed

I am a jewel on the riverbed

I am a jewel on the riverbed

And as I sink, I begin to sing

The itch, the itch

I have fallen in love with it

And all these fish can do is watch

As I dive into

I am a jewel on the riverbed

I am a jewel on the riverbed

And as I sink, I begin to think

What if divers go down

But divers don't come back up?

Then what they gonna do

When this diver's long overdue?

And meanwhile, far, far below

I rest my head, and my eyes begin to close

And even as I sink, I begin to reach

I am a jewel on the riverbed

I am a jewel on the riverbed

I am a jewel on the riverbed

And so I reach and begin to scratch

I am a jewel on the riverbed

The itch, the itch

I have fallen in love with it
