Undertown

I'm rock-bottom in another disaster,
I've been swimming in the undertow,
So tell me, tell me you're laying me low,
Cos every minute is a little bit faster,
When you're looking for a miracle,
To help me, help me, i need to know,

This is an emergency,
Ex-lovers and gravity,
Are beating me down to blood and bone,

Don't leave me alone,
Cos i'd never know where to go,
You sink like a stone,
When you're swimming in the undertow,
Just throw me a line,
Cos then maybe i'll make it out alive,
Nobody knows,
When you're swimming in the undertow,

I see the sun like a serial killer,
Shine a light on my dusty dreams,
But hold on, hold on,
What does it mean?
That some day we're gonna run this street?
Feel the earth and eternity?
When everything is not as easy as it seems?
And everything that i love the most,
And the fear of the holy ghost,
Will tell me what is impossible?

Don't leave me alone,
Cos i'd never know where to go,
You sink like a stone,
When you're swimming in the undertow,
Just throw me a line,
Cos then maybe i'll make it out alive,
Nobody knows,
When you're swimming in the undertow,

I'm punch-drunk on the memory,
I'll sew it up like a surgery,
One step and you're deeper than you know,

Don't leave me alone,
Cos i'd never know where to go,
You sink like a stone,
When you're swimming in the undertow,
Just throw me a line,
Cos then maybe i'll make it out alive,
Nobody knows,
When you're swimming in the undertow
