What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Gazing at the sun
2
From the ocean floor
3
Unable to breathe
4
Can't be sure if I need to
5
Your wings, now rotten scabs
6
That you need to keep damp
7
I made a choice, now the tethers burn my skin
8
Why does my blood run cold?
9
Bereft of air we're sinking further
10
Habituating, you say you feel it
11
Getting warmer"¦
12
But I can't feel a thing
13
Here on the ocean floor
14
I can see its light (through the water)
15
I cannot feel the warmth (it radiates)
16
Sympathy is spent
17
I learnt to hear the cold (through your eyes)
18
A silence so intense
19
Stifles our words of denial and contempt
20
As we dive down through the sun
21
A thousand miles from shore
22
I cannot fucking breathe
23
Can't be sure if I need to
24
Need to"¦
25
My neck jerks without warning we surface
26
No time to decompress
27
No time to decompress
28
But you stumble back towards the edge
29
You leap, I follow
30
Together we dive
31
down"¦
32
The ocean is your sky
33
Into which you soar
34
All you see in the surface is the sun's and your
35
Reflection
36
Down here if I dream, I dream of sleep
37
And I can't feel temperature anymore
38
And I think I could float suspended for days
39
days"¦
40
My neck jerks without warning we surface
41
No time to decompress
42
No time to decompress
43
But you stumble back towards the edge
44
You leap, I follow
45
Together we dive
46
down"¦
47
The ocean is your sky
48
Into which you soar
49
All you see in the surface is the sun's and your reflection
50
(Won't you) let me drown
51
Or let me breathe"¦
52
These tethers have become
53
Waterlogged and rusted to
54
Keep you smiling
55
Compassion beaten down
56
My hopeless anchor
57
Daedalus, for all he tried,
58
Forewarnings forever
59
Fell upon deaf ears
60
Icarus you are deceived
61
Your wings turn to roots
62
Clutch at the sand now and take shape
63
In the place that holds you down
64
Just a word of comfort
65
You will never drown
66
Icarus you are alone and always have been
67
So why am I here?
68
The ocean is your sky
69
Into which you soar
70
All you see is the surface
