I am the deck You are the sea I am the lights on the water You are moving underneath Underneath me I am the rail You are the sea I don’t know what I’m looking at Don’t know if it’s even happening Underneath me It doesn’t take much It doesn’t take much to ruin a moment like this They curse your name They whisper, “Please, please, please” They’re yelling at your waves “Stop crashing, just please bring her home to me” People can be so mean They call you, “the drowning machine” I’m the entertainment You are the sea I am the survivor You didn’t even notice me Underneath I am the wreck You are the sea I yelled your name cross the water You just hummed a factory Underneath me It doesn’t take much It doesn’t take much to ruin a moment like this I call your name I whisper, “Please, please, please” Not yelling at your waves To stop crashing, just please, bring her home to me But people can be so mean They call you, “the drowning machine” The drowning machine
