[Intro] [underwater air, reversed guitar, distant vocal fragments] [Verse 1] I found my name beneath the waterline A quiet thing the current couldn't take You held the lantern steady while I climbed Through every fault I thought I had to hide [Pre-Chorus] If I let go, will you still know me? If I fall through, will you come slowly? [Chorus] Take me where the ground gives way Turn the weight into a wave I am more than what I broke I can breathe inside the undertow Hold me through the folding sky Keep one hand against the tide When the whole world slips below I will find you in the undertow [Instrumental Suite: chopped source-vocal fragments, deep rolling wobble bass, stereo drift] [Verse 2] Your old blue jacket hangs beside the door Salt dried white along its folded seam I used to think that leaving meant I lost Now every road returns me to the sea [Pre-Chorus] If I let go, will you still know me? If I fall through, will you come slowly? [Chorus] Take me where the ground gives way Turn the weight into a wave I am more than what I broke I can breathe inside the undertow Hold me through the folding sky Keep one hand against the tide When the whole world slips below I will find you in the undertow [Dub Breakdown] [Single rimshot, chopped vocal breaths, bass bends in slow motion] Stay with me... Let it turn... What was lost... Can return... [Final Chorus] Take me where the ground gives way Turn the weight into a wave I am more than what I broke I can breathe inside the undertow Hold me through the folding sky Keep one hand against the tide When the whole world slips below I will find you in the undertow [Outro] [Instrumental: fragments dissolve into spring echoes and deep sub] I will find you... In the undertow...
