Lyrics

I opened the window
What did I see
I saw the waves lapping at my feet
So I jumped from the balcony
Into the deep
The fish just beside me
Just out of reach

Take me far away
Sometimes I can’t even breathe
I know this city too well
And I think it’s killing me

I felt so peaceful
I didn’t feel scared
Only the darkness far out ahead
So I kept to the rocks and things I could see
I love it down there I love it down deep

Chorus

I saw the long rope fade into dark
The umbilical cord
A path back to the top
I want to come back I don’t want to stay
I like to dip in and know that I will be okay
