Breathing Underwater
by Mike Mains & The Branches

Album: When We Were in Love

Verse 1
In the morning over coffee
Threw my heart on the table
Told you what I've done in the dark
You felt far away

I was gonna be your shelter
Held you while you fell asleep
We were in the back of my car
Before you were far away

Pre-Chorus 1
Now that you see darkness in me
Won't you please
Please

Chorus 1
Take me deep into your river
Sugar, let me soak until I'm clean
Set my dirty lungs on fire
I surrender to your mystery
Breathing underwater

Breathing underwater

Verse 2
Now my brain is in a vice grip
He's taking lots of notes
Telling me I'm making progress
I broke everything

I'm a zombie on the sidewalk
Stumble into strangers
Thinking about kissing the traffic
God, it'd be so quick

Pre-Chorus 2
Spiders crawl in my brain
I'm feeling so far away
It's strange

Chorus 2
Take me deep into your river
Sugar, let me soak until I'm clean
Set my dirty lungs on fire
I surrender to your mystery
Breathing underwater

Breathing underwater
Breathing underwater
Breathing underwater

Bridge
We are a shattered vase
And I let us break
I'm standing with roses
I am your worst mistake
You are my everything
I'm standing with roses in the rain
Screaming out your name

Chorus 3
Take me deep into your river
Sugar, let me soak until I'm clean
Set my dirty lungs on fire
I surrender to your mystery
I'm breathing underwater

Tag
I'm standing with roses in the rain
I'm standing with roses in the rain
I'm standing with roses in the rain
Oh

I'm standing with roses in the rain
I'm standing with roses in the rain
I'm standing with roses in the rain
Oh
