DIVING BELL is the third song released from STARSET’s third studio album DIVISIONS and serves as the album’s closer. The song was revealed via an online challenge for fans to “sink” the diving bell by pre-saving the album before release.
[Intro]
Prepare the diving bell
It's time to take this low again
I sink into myself, low
No need for farewell
I know you always understand
[Verse 1]
Sorry there's no place for you inside the solitude
Just stay up here until I'm back again
I swear I'll be there for you
I swear I'll follow through
Stay the course and keep the ship manned
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I was certain if I fell through the bottom
You'd be happy just to float here on your own
I was never quite prepared for the long ride, oh
Away, away, away, alone
[Chorus]
Oh, this wasn't in my plans
Abandoned ship and heading for the sand
Oh, the albatross crash-lands
I've got the sinking feeling that I never can go home
If I stare into the abyss
Will it stare into me? (Home)
If I stare into the abyss
Will it stare into me? (Home)
If I stare into the abyss
Will it stare into me? (Home)
If I stare into the abyss
Will it stare into me?
[Verse 2]
Prepare the diving bell
Maybe just for a spell, again
As far as I can tell
Oh, you knew me too well
I miss you there when I descend
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Sorry, there's no place for you inside the solitude
Just stay up here until I'm back again
[Chorus]
Oh, this wasn't in my plans
Abandoned ship and heading for the sand
Oh, the albatross crash-lands
I've got the sinking feeling that I never can go home
If I stare into the abyss
Will it stare into me? (Home)
If I stare into the abyss
Will it stare into me? (Home)
If I stare into the abyss
Will it stare into me? (Home)
If I stare into the abyss
Will it stare into me?
[Bridge]
In my mind, endless sea
Calling from the bottom, but you don't hear me
Send your line down to me
Meet me on the surface
I will never leave
In my mind, endless sea
Calling from the bottom, but you don't hear me
Send your line down to me
Meet me on the surface
I will never leave
Just one time, all I need
Calling from the bottom but you don't hear me
Stuck in time, stuck in me
Broken on the bottom like a refugee
[Outro]
Wake me when the new day comes
Together we will ride the sun
The future is an empty gun
We ride on to them one-by-one
Wake me when the new day comes
Together we will ride the sun
The future is an empty gun
We ride on to them one-by-one
Wake me when the new day comes
Together we will ride the sun
The future is an empty gun
We ride on to them one-by-one
One-by-one
