lyrics

Grab my hand I’m going under
The last thing you said to me made me shutter
Gasping for air, I’m really struggling here
Then everything goes dark, and I slip under, I won’t recover
And I slip under, I can’t recover, I can’t come up

The ebb and flow of tide knocked me out, dragged me down.
Today I’m twenty-four years older than I ever thought I’d be and I will drown.

You pulled me under
Under the covers
You pulled me under
Like your lover

Why won’t you say it right; your extended vocal chords are screaming at the ceiling calling to names I don’t believe in or answer to, and I know this isn’t quite right. But I’m in the same position, I made a resolution - to stay alive, and go on all night.

It’s the same old song, telling the same old story - of a messy dance. And I know this is pity sex and I know this is pity sex, I don’t have to hedge my bets. It was the 31st of July when I first saw your deep blue eyes and the current dragged me in.
And I know this is pity sex and I know this is pity sex and I know this is pity, yeah it has to be pity when

You pulled me under
Under the covers
You pulled me under
Like your lover
Like your lover
Like your lover
I’ll never recover
