Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Days like this, I don't know what to do with myself
All day, and all night
I wander the halls along the walls
And under my breath, I say to myself, "I need fuel to take flight"
[Chorus]
And there's too much going on
But it's calm under the waves
In the blue of my oblivion
Under the waves, in the blue of my oblivion
[Verse 2]
Is that why they call me a sullen girl? Sullen girl
They don't know, I used to sail the deep and tranquil sea
But he washed me ashore
And he took my pearl
And left an empty
Shell of me
[Chorus]
And there's too much going on
But it's calm under the waves
In the blue of my oblivion
Under the waves, in the blue of my oblivion
Under the waves, in the blue of my oblivion
It's calm under the waves
In the blue of my oblivion
