She wasn't swallowed by the ground
I must confess I let her drown
So I could begin again
'Cos she knew the reason in her hand
Would grow colder with time
Made up my unmade mind
But I stop breathing when you rise
Whenever you fall I die
To bury yourselves in shifting sands
Won't keep this ship from going down
As soon as you talk to me
So leave her right here and stop this freeze
I'll let her go to let me be
But I stop breathing when you rise
Whenever you fall I die
But lately you keep on trying to reach me
Now lately, something's wrong in your eyes
And it's not right
But I stop breathing when you rise
Whenever you fall I die
I must confess I let her drown
So I could begin again
'Cos she knew the reason in her hand
Would grow colder with time
Made up my unmade mind
But I stop breathing when you rise
Whenever you fall I die
To bury yourselves in shifting sands
Won't keep this ship from going down
As soon as you talk to me
So leave her right here and stop this freeze
I'll let her go to let me be
But I stop breathing when you rise
Whenever you fall I die
But lately you keep on trying to reach me
Now lately, something's wrong in your eyes
And it's not right
But I stop breathing when you rise
Whenever you fall I die
