[Verse 1] I lost my faith, I lost my way now I'm here in black waters not a lighthouse in sight no beacon of hope to help me home I'm sailing on endless black seas Tattered sails and frayed ropes heavy anchor, not much hope my hands are raw from holding on [Pre-Chorus] A sirens song couldn't draw me back as I keep breathing in the dark Every wave says stay right here Every scar says you've gone far [Chorus] Black waters, black waters they're smothering embrace Black waters, black waters caress my soul like lace Black waters, black waters I sink and I still breathe Black waters, black waters you're the only way I see [Verse 2] Salt in my mouth, steel in my chest I chase the shadow of the shore Each broken oar, each ragged prayer falls quiet on the floor The moon won't lift this weight for me the stars won't name my pain So I let the deep take all I know and I learn your cold again [Pre-Chorus] A sirens song couldn't draw me back as I keep breathing in the dark Every wave says stay right here Every scar says you've gone far [Chorus] Black waters, black waters they're smothering embrace Black waters, black waters caress my soul like lace Black waters, black waters I sink and I still breathe Black waters, black waters you're the only way I see [Bridge] If I call out, will you answer? If I break, will you stay? I made my bed in this deep black grave now I can't wash it away [Final Chorus] Black waters, black waters they're smothering embrace Black waters, black waters caress my soul like lace Black waters, black waters I sink and I still breathe Black waters, black waters you're the only way I see
