I dipped my feet into the water
Where everything was still
And it was cold
I tried to stay there for forever
But hesitation slips
When I want nothing lesser
Than my whole body in
But it is cold
I know the sun's rays are indifferent
But I swear they’re meant to shine on you
Though in your water I am rigid, I’m caving in a shivering
I know I’ll get used to it
I’m gonna swim out with the current
And I won’t even blink
I’ll breath in all the water
And let my body sink
I’m going down deep
Until we’re indistinct
There’s so much here beneath the surface
That I could never see
Between the shell and the softness underneath
It’s irresponsible reckless
But I think it’s what I need
So hold me down till I am breathless
And never let me breath
Hammer out all my defenses
And pull me back in
If I act to cowardly
Cause I wanna take the plunge
Use your power over me
And if I’m drowning under the torrent
Let me be
If I’m falling asleep could you keep me awake
If I’m in the deep don’t push me away
I’m already close enough
I’m already in the lake
If you want me here just tell me to stay
If I’m in this deep don’t push me away
Im already close enough
I’m already in the lake
Pull me down cmon
Hold me down
I think I’m ready for the cold
So come and hold me down
