At the bottom where it's quiet mmm Where the weight kept pressing down I learned to hide her in the shadows oh yeah Kept her deep under the ground Every thought was slow and heavy mmm Every truth a distant sound I could always hear her calling oh yeah From this place so profound I'm rising from the deep From the dark where she was sleeping All the lies I used to keep Slipping off me Slowly leaving I don't know what waits above As I finally regain some feeling I'm becoming who I am As I shed this skin to stop the bleeding My name never fit me mmm Like a coat two sizes wide But I wore it out of fear and habit oh yeah Digging deep into my side She swam up to release the pressure mmm I can see the sky above me Every kick of my tired feet oh yeah Closer to breaking her free I'm rising from the deep From the dark where she was sleeping All the lies I used to keep Slipping off me Slowly leaving I don't know what waits above As I finally regain some feeling I'm becoming who I am As I shed this skin to stop the bleeding ohhh yeaahhh (guitar solo) I did everything I needed I did everything they asked I kept her buried deeply As she bled out slowly, dying fast I'm rising from the deep From the dark where she was sleeping Every secret I would keep Breaking open Finally leaving I don't know what waits above Cause I've finally some feeling I'm becoming who I am As I shed this skin to stop the bleeding Stop the bleeding...... stop...this....bleeding (guitar solo)
