Lyrics

Gone under two times
I've been struck dumb by a voice that
Speaks from deep
Beneath the cold black water
It's twice as clear as heaven
And twice as loud as reason
It's deep and rich like silt on a riverbed
And just as neverending
The currents mouth below me opens up around me
Suggests and beckons all while swallowing
It surrounds and drowns and sweeps me away

But I'm so comfortable...too comfortable

Shut up shut up shut up shut up
Shut up shut up shut up shut up
You're saturating me
So how could I let this bring me
Back to my knees again again again

Under for the third time
I've been baptized by your voice
It screams from deep beneath the endless water
And it's half as high as heaven
And half as clear as reason
It's cold and and black like silt on the riverbed
But I'm so comfortable
Far too comfortable
Why don't you kill me
I'm weak and numb and insignificant
And I'm back on my knees
Lost in euphoria
I'm back down. I'm in the undertow
I'm helpless and awake in the undertow
I'll die within your undertow
It seems there's no other way out of this undertow

Euphoria
