[Verse 1]
Marching along
Like a good soldier does
I'm setting sail
With anchors holding me down
Pack up my bags
Stow them away (Stow them away)
I'm bidding farewell
To all that is safe
[Pre-Chorus]
Will I come up for air?
Come up for air
[Chorus]
After a while, the current is calling me
Lulling me, waving goodbye
I'm out here alone—oh, God, can you save me now?
Sinking, my heart turns to stone
[Verse 2]
Withering away
A shrinking violet dies
So full of life
These lights have dried me out
Into the sea
Needed a drink
I never thought
This would consume me whole
[Pre-Chorus]
Will I come up for air?
Come up for air
[Chorus]
After a while, the current is calling me
Lulling me, waving goodbye (Goodbye)
I'm out here alone—oh, God, can you save me now? (Save me now)
Sinking, my heart turns to stone (Turns to stone)
Sinking, my heart turns to stone (Turns to stone)
Sinking, my heart turns to stone
[Bridge]
Save me, take me home
(Over and over again)
Save me, take me home
(Wishing that this all would end)
Save me, take me home
(Over and over again)
Save me, take me home
(Wishing that this all would end)
[Chorus]
After a while, the current is calling me
Lulling me, waving goodbye (Goodbye)
I'm out here alone—oh, God, can you save me now? (Save me now)
Sinking, my heart turns to stone
[Chorus]
After a while the current is calling me
Lulling me, waving goodbye (Goodbye)
I'm out here alone—oh, God, can you save me now?
Sinking, my heart turns to stone (Turns to stone)
Sinking, my heart turns to stone
[Outro]
Save me, take me home
(Will I come up for air?
Will I come up for air?)
Save me, take me home
(Will I come up for air?
Will I come up for air?)
Save me, take me home
(Over and over again)
Save me, take me home
(Wishing that this
Wishing that all this will end)
