I thought I knew you better than I do
but hey, whatever
You lead me out and promised if we drowned
we'd drown together
And now, I'm free indeed
But I'm swimming with my armbands out at sea
And I need a solid shore out there waiting for me
I'll need no sleep for a week
And I'm out into the deep blue
out into the deep blue

[Chorus:]
I'm in too deep
I'm alone
When I need you most
You'll be gone
Deep blue sea
Will you take me home?
Watch me drown
Or let me float?

You carry me, pull against my wishes
I could long for sleep, sleeping with the fishes
And now I see the sea is unforgiving
I want to be on land with the living
I'm easily swayed by the ocean
I'm weak, I'll leave myself by emotion
So I chase things I can't change, can't choose
Out into the deep blue, out into the deep blue

[Chorus]

I'm handy at sea shanties
The romance is dead, out at sea
I'm cold and my lips, they taste like salt
I wanna swim home and don't know how I got so
You fed me lies and left me high and dry
Except I'm wet, I'm soaked, I'm lost
And good as dead
I'll see you at the riverbed

[Chorus]
