Submerged Lyrics & Chords By Mystery

Here comes the storm I can tell
I can see the clouds form
Like I've seen them
So many times before
Knowing this
I know I'll drown again

It's the light of the city on
Before the darkness falls
That's how I know the night is coming
It comes for me, that's how I know

I didn't ask to be put here
Am I just living in fear?
As the water surrounds my body
Am I left to drown in my tears?

I look up from the bottom
No feeling in my mind
Far away I can see
A light comforting white

How I wish I could reach it
Just lift my hands and grab on hold
Below, I'm just below
Am I just below and will I ever grow old?

I never asked to be put here
Am I just living in fear?
As the water surrounds my body
Am I left to drown in my tears?

Many years I've questioned
The innocence of a child
Trapped within a little world
They just scream, scream, scream
To get out...

He bangs his head against the surface hoping
Oh! Just hoping for a gasp of air

He struggles, she struggles
Till the child reaches the top
He's breathing, she's breathing
Just hold your breath
And this one's gonna take you down far...

I know that it's crazy
Do you think I'm lazy?
My mind's getting hazy
From the flood that surrounds me

Teach me to swim
I beg you, I beg you
Just one little swim
And I'll leave you alone

If the world has taught me one lesson
And that's my life beyond any reason
And what I don't understand
Comes so easily...
Easily!

If I take hold of your hand
Will it free me?
Should I trust once again?
While the rain pounds on my brain

I never asked to be put here
Am I just living in fear?
As the water surrounds my body
Am I left to drown in my tears?
In my tears?

I feel the wind blowing
I see a break in the sky
I still cannot reach it
And still I don't know why
But in some strange way
I sense some kind of warmth
Like my body has washed ashore

It feels so warm
And the truth that I find
Is submerged in my mind
But the warmth that I feel
Is your hand in mine
Oh! I can breathe once again
Again!
