underwater blues

and i get no sleep

i dream underwater

whales and as they roll in my dreams

we can talk about it

and i get no sleep

but i dream underwater

i waste all my years laying under the stars

just dreaming 'bout it

resting my bones just waiting for silence

we could all use a little more quiet

with my diary on the desk

screaming at me

it's an ineffable thing

with the wind soaring on the wind

through the nefarious night

a cold hand touches me

pulls me deep underwater

i'm free

a quiver i keep i think

it's time

down to the deep below

struggling to see

fades black

whales

at my back

calls me home and i

breathe underwater and so

now i'm brand new

and i get no sleep

but i dream underwater
