Into the Water

[Intro] Mmm... There you are. I knew you'd come back. (Come back...) (Come back...) (Come back!) The swamp's been askin' for you. [Verse 1] Take my hand and watch the water still. Even the frogs know to hush when I will. The cypress lean when I call their names. The fireflies gather to watch the flames. You came here hungry. I can tell. Got that look in your eye When you're halfway between heaven and hell. And darlin', I know exactly what to do With a hunger like yours. (Eat!) (Eat!) (Eat!) (Eat!) [Pre-Chorus] Lean in closer. A little closer. (Kneel!) (Kneel!) (Kneel!) That's it. Let the swamp smell your fear. [Chorus] Come down to the water. Come down to me. Let me put my hands where your soul oughta be. Love tastes sweeter When it's mixed with sin. So open up, darlin'. Let me in. (Let her in, let her in, let her in, let her in!) (Let her in, let her in, let her in, LET HER IN!) [Verse 2] The lotus blooms where the bodies sink. Ain't that pretty? Don't think. Every bone beneath the mud Used to belong to somebody too. Now they're roots. Now they're flowers. Soon they'll belong to you. (Belong, belong!) I got a pot on the boil. I got a spell on the breeze. And every little secret you've been hidin' Comes runnin' home to me. [Pre-Chorus] Don't pull away. You're already dreamin'. (Sink deeper...) (Sink deeper...) The water's warm. [Chorus] Come down to the water. Come down to me. Let me put my hands where your soul oughta be. Love tastes sweeter when it's mixed with sin. So open up, darlin'. Let me in. (Let her in, let her in, let her in, let her in!) (Let her in, let her in, let her in, LET HER IN!) [Banjo Ritual Break] Eat... More... Drown! Drown! Eat... More... Drown! [Bridge] I fed the swamp your name. I fed it your fear. I fed it every prayer That brought you here. Now the water's risin'. Now the roots are awake. Now something old Is opening its eyes beneath the lake. And it's hungry. (Hungry...) (Hungry...) (Hungry!) Just like me. [Final Chorus] Come down to the water. Come down to me. There ain't no difference anymore between the swamp and me. Love tastes sweeter When it's mixed with sin. And every piece of you Belongs beneath my skin. (One of us...) (One of us...) (One of us!) Come a little closer. That's right. The ritual's almost done. [Outro] Shh... There you go. The swamp remembers. And now... So do you. (Come back...) (Come back...) (Come back!)
