Coming Up for Air

V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1] Deep reverberations roll down here Where the light barely gets through We come up for air Between the echoes and you Salt on my tongue, cold on my hands Half of me still below Counting the ripples Watching the bottom glow [Pre-Chorus] And I feel it shift At the edge of the blue One slow breath Then the pull comes through [Chorus] I keep coming up for air Hands on the dock, lungs full of cold I break the surface Spit out the echo And watch the day hit hard up there I keep coming up for air I keep coming up for air [Verse 2] Fingers white on the wood Knees shaking out the dark I left a little of me Down where the water marks Every scar on my chest Every name I can’t keep Drifts like a secret Too deep for me to speak [Pre-Chorus] And I feel it shift At the edge of the blue One slow breath Then the pull comes through [Chorus] I keep coming up for air Hands on the dock, lungs full of cold I break the surface Spit out the echo And watch the day hit hard up there I keep coming up for air I keep coming up for air [Bridge] Let the deep keep calling Let it call my name I’ve been under long enough I know I can change One more breath One more try I can learn the sky I can learn the sky [Chorus] I keep coming up for air Hands on the dock, lungs full of cold I break the surface Spit out the echo And watch the day hit hard up there I keep coming up for air I keep coming up for air
