You Can Still Fall with your Head Under Water
YOU CAN STILL FALL WITH YOUR HEAD UNDER WATER
There’s no time for silence
No time to kill
No time for justifying
When your heart is dying
Stand on the bottom
Look for the top
Look for the one who
Might come and save you
Might move the stillness
Might cause the ripples
To churn the darkness
Then, glowing from the inside
You’ll rise to the outside
There’s no time for confusion
No time to waste
No time for understanding
Why your feet aren’t moving
Let go of the sand and shells
Reach out for the wind and rain
Reach out for those who
Might come and save you
Might move the stillness
Might cause the ripples
To churn the darkness
Then, glowing from the inside
You’ll rise to the outside
There’s no time for, just a minute
No time to breathe
No time for holding
Where your head stops trying
Curl fingers around the currents
They’ve come to make you
They’ve come to take who
Might come and save you
Might move the stillness
Might cause the ripples
To churn the darkness
Then, glowing from the inside
You’ll rise to the outside
With your head above the water
There’s no time for silence
No time to kill
No time for justifying
When your heart is dying
Stand on the bottom
Look for the top
Look for the one who
Might come and save you
Might move the stillness
Might cause the ripples
To churn the darkness
Then, glowing from the inside
You’ll rise to the outside
There’s no time for confusion
No time to waste
No time for understanding
Why your feet aren’t moving
Let go of the sand and shells
Reach out for the wind and rain
Reach out for those who
Might come and save you
Might move the stillness
Might cause the ripples
To churn the darkness
Then, glowing from the inside
You’ll rise to the outside
There’s no time for, just a minute
No time to breathe
No time for holding
Where your head stops trying
Curl fingers around the currents
They’ve come to make you
They’ve come to take who
Might come and save you
Might move the stillness
Might cause the ripples
To churn the darkness
Then, glowing from the inside
You’ll rise to the outside
With your head above the water
