Undertow

Gone under two times
I've been struck dumb by a voice that
Speaks from deep
Beneath the endless water
It's twice as clear as heaven
And twice as loud as reason
It's deep and rich like silt on a riverbed
And just as neverending
The currents mouth below me opens up around me
Suggests and beckons all while swallowing
It surrounds and drowns and sweeps me away
But I'm so comfortable... Too comfortable
Shut up. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up
You're saturating me
How could I have let this bring me back to my knees?
Under for the third time
I've been baptized by your voice
It screams from deep beneath the cold black water
It's half as high as heaven
Half as clear as reason
It's cold and and black like silt on the riverbed
And just as neverending
The currents mouth below me opens up around me
It suggests and beckons all while swallowing
It surrounds and drowns and sweeps me away
But I'm so comfortable
Far too comfortable
Shut up. Shut up. Shut up. Shut up your saturating me
How could I have let this happen?
Why don't you kill me?
I am weak and numb and insignificant
How could I have let this bring me back to my knees?
Eu-pho-ri-a
Eu-pho-ri-a
Eu-pho-ri-a
Eu-pho-ri-a
I'm back down. I'm in the undertow
I'm helpless and awake. I'm in the undertow
I'll die within the undertow
There doesn't seem no other way out of the undertow
Eu-pho-ri-a
