[Instrumental Hook] [Rippling strings, soft hand drums, distant vocal chops] Da-da-da, da-da-deep, Da-da-da, down with me. [Verse 1] You hate that I’m smiling when the whole room breaks, You want me afraid, but I don’t move that way. You reach for my heart like you know where it hides, But I keep it deep where the black tide lies. You call me reckless, I call it alive, You call it a curse when I dance with the knife. Oh, lover, don’t flinch — you knew what I became, You wanted a spark, now you’re scared of the flame. [Chorus] (Ooh) I move like water, you can’t hold me down, (Ooh) You pull me close, then you let me drown. Thought you were the shore, turns out you were the warning, Tell me — is this love or just fear in the morning? (Ooh) I move like water, you can’t hold me down, (Ooh) You pull me close, then you let me drown. Thought you were the shore, turns out you were the warning, Tell me — is this love or just fear in the morning? [Post-Chorus] La-da-da, la-da-deep, let the water carry me, La-da-da, la-da-dive, I was born where storms survive. Ha-ah-ah, hear me laugh when the waves get wild, La-da-da, la-da-deep — joy is dangerous when it smiles. [Verse 2] Your voice gets soft when the storm rolls in, You say my joy feels dangerous again. You circle my name like a blade in the deep, Then act surprised when the waves don’t sleep. I hear every secret you try to disguise, See every shadow behind your eyes. And I hate that I care, hate that I know, Hate that my smile still cracks when you go cold. [Chorus] (Ooh) I move like water, you can’t hold me down, (Ooh) You pull me close, then you let me drown. Thought you were the shore, turns out you were the warning, Tell me — is this love or just fear in the morning? (Ooh) I move like water, you can’t hold me down, (Ooh) You pull me close, then you let me drown. Thought you were the shore, turns out you were the warning, Tell me — is this love or just fear in the morning? [Post-Chorus] La-da-da, la-da-deep, let the water carry me, La-da-da, la-da-dive, I was born where storms survive. Ha-ah-ah, hear me laugh when the waves get wild, La-da-da, la-da-deep — joy is dangerous when it smiles. [Instrumental Hook] *Drums hit harder, water-like synths rise, vocal chops echo* Da-da-da, da-da-deep, Da-da-da, down with me. Wave come low, tide come higher, Joy in the dark like holy fire. [Bridge] You want me to break first, You need me to hurt worse, But I learned how to laugh With a war in my chest. Tell me I’m heartless, Then tell me why your silence Always sounds like regret. [Final Chorus] (Ooh) I move like water, you can’t hold me down, (Ooh) You pull me close, then you let me drown. Thought you were the shore, turns out you were the warning, Tell me — is this love or just fear in the morning? (Ooh) I move like water, I don’t beg, I rise, (Ooh) Still got the ocean burning in my eyes. You thought I’d come running, thought I’d lose my magic, Tell me — is this love or just control dressed tragic? [Final Post-Chorus] La-da-da, la-da-deep, let the water carry me, La-da-da, la-da-dive, I was born where storms survive. Ha-ah-ah, hear me laugh when the waves get wild, La-da-da, la-da-deep — joy is dangerous when it smiles. [Outro Instrumental Hook] *Everything drops to vocals, drums, and rippling strings* Da-da-da, da-da-deep, Da-da-da, down with me. Wave come low, tide come higher, Joy in the dark like holy fire.
