Underwater Bride

Help me stay awake, I’m falling asleep

And I don’t want to fall asleep while you’re here

You’re gonna leave when the alarm clock beeps

And it will beep any moment, my dear

And all that we have will be locked into memory

Like everything that we’ve had before

So I will stay awake

And I will watch the fire burning

And keep the hungry wolves from the door

Help me find my way back to the bread crumbs

I’ve wandered alone through the trees

The lights are dimming in the windows of the houses

And my heart is starting to freeze

See, we have a light but we won’t use it

We’re scared we’ll lose it if we don’t use it

Then we’ll die here in the dark

And they will find us hopeless and helpless

And clutching our frozen hearts

But you and I, well, we’ll be buried side by side

And time, it won’t mean a thing

I’ll be your underground groom

You’ll be my underground bride

Please, can you help me keep my head above the water

I have cramp in both of my calves

Yeah, my lungs are filling up with cold dirty water

But I’ve a sickness that is making me laugh

See we have boat but we don't think it

We’re scared we’ll sink but we’ll drink it

If we never find that raft

We will sink down to the bottom of the ocean

With the fishes that glow in the dark

But you and I, well, we’ll sink down side by side

And time, it won’t mean a thing

I’ll be your underwater groom

You’ll be my underwater bride

And, oh, the lights are fading my love

And, oh, the water’s filling me up

And, oh, the lights are fading my love
