The Deep

Laura Clare

Compositor: Laura Clare

Well, I guess it’s my fault after all
Cause after all we’ve been through
You’re the one that I call

I followed the tide back out to the deep
Cause you look crystal clear
To me

So I let myself drown, drown, drown
Wait for your hands to save me
But your hands held me down, down, down
And it’s all over now

You ask me to swim while you drag me down
I try to scream, but there’s no one around
You made a wreckage of my soul but hey
At least I gave you my all

Now the waves whisper everything I should have known
My head tells my beaten heart: Well, I told you so
Now the water in my lungs
Is all I have to show

So I let myself drown, drown, drown
Wait for your hands to save me
But your hands held me down, down, down
And it’s all over now

In my hair, on my waist
Your hands make me forget the way
I asked you to hold me tight
But you held a knife

Soaked in blood
You washed them clean
Oh, yours were the hands
That broke me

So I let myself drown, drown, drown
Wait for your hands to save me
But your hands held me down, down, down
And it’s all over now

I should’ve known
I told you so
I should’ve known
I told you so
I should’ve known
I told you so
I should’ve known
I told you so
