Below

From Indian Lakes

I wish I'd never touched the surface of the sun
Suddenly, I'm burning brightly, burning too bright
Falling fast into the sea

And I'm anchored to the ocean floor below
Sleeping softly on and on 
Between my daydreams and my nightmares of the sun

I'm anchored to the ocean floor, I'm anchored
The words were there 
But I had never heard them, not like this
I'm anchored to the ocean floor, I'm anchored
I stood at the bottom
While I watched as lovers shared a first kiss

I remember it like it happened only moments ago
In November, this will be the only thing I have left to hold

These creatures stare at me while passing on their away
Can I touch them now or when they sleep
Or will they try to stop me if I do

And I'm angry at the waves from far below
Can they see that I am trying
I am like them, reaching for anything else

My arms are reaching out, but I was always trying to get where I could never go before
Am I alive, is it over now
I can still feel the cold, but I can see that I'm still alone
My arms are reaching out, but I was always trying to get where I could never go before
Am I alive, is it over now
I can still feel the cold, but I can see that I'm still alone

I caught them swimming down below
I found them running
My friends were there, but I had never seen them 
Not like this
I caught them swimming down below
I found them running
I lay at the bottom
While I wait for my lover's last kiss

I remember it like it happened only moments ago
In November, this will be the only thing I have left to hold
I remember it like it happened only moments ago
In November, this will be the only thing I have left to hold

To hold onto
