20k Years Underwater

Up on the ground
The heavy crowd
Start to fall on their knees.
Up on the ground
A burning sound
Tortures you with the heat.
When the sun
Lights their minds,
The wind blows a silent wheeze.
Up on the ground
The heavy crowd
Will know the end is near.
Rivers that used to run
Under the desert sun
Count their pearly tears.
Old undefended skin is covered
With scales like silver spoons.
Breathing through those gills will turn my
Eyes into rays of doom.
Up on the ground
There's a land of fog
That was once my home.
A wheezing sound
Took me here, underground,
To live here all alone.
I've been sentenced to watch over the ocean and the
Gods who have to pay for their sins.
Just sign the contract
And you'll see how soon it all begins.
In the deepest
Bottom mud
I signed this contract
With my god.
There is no reason
To be scared.
I'm underwater...
Spiralhead!
Living underwater,
Breathing underwater...
From the deepest
Bottom mud
I found this message.
It's from the god.
It said i will be
Living here
For another twenty
Thousand years.
Living underwater
20k years...
A shipwreck's figurehead
Is my only friend down here.
Starry black summer nights
Make the darkness disappear.
Reaching my head out
Feels like i'm drowning in the open air.
Spiral head periscope
Is keeping an eye on what's out there.
Tomorrow is the day
When we shall see the end.
