Beneath the New Tide

Blue light below me Slow breath, no shore The surface is fading I belong to the floor Far from the old red fire in the sky Far from the wreck where the white birds cried I hear that planet calling through the foam Like every depth I feared was leading home No map, no morning Just pressure and glow A heartbeat in the water And a shadow moving slow Let the sea take the sound Let the dark open wide I am small, I am found In the pull of the tide Down, down, deeper we go Where the blue turns black and the green things glow Breathe in, drift slow Let the current carry what we used to know Down, down, under the light Past the reef, past the fear past the edge of sight I'm not alone in the endless blue The ocean dreams, and I dream too Somewhere behind me, a crater sleeps With metal bones in the silent deep A voice in the water, a cure in the veins A life we left to begin again Now new stars tremble On a stranger sea And something ancient Is listening to me Let the sea take the sound Let the dark open wide I am small, I am found In the pull of the tide Down, down, deeper we go Where the blue turns black and the green things glow Breathe in, drift slow Let the current carry what we used to know Down, down, under the light Past the reef, past the fear past the edge of sight I'm not alone in the endless blue The ocean dreams, and I dream too No thunder here Only distant calls No ground beneath Only living walls If the leviathan sings I will not run I will fade like light Under alien suns Hold your breath Hear the reef Feel the world Move underneath Hold your breath Drift with me We are small But we are free Down, down, deeper we go Where the blue turns black and the green things glow Breathe in, drift slow Let the current carry what we used to know Down, down, under the light Past the reef, past the fear past the edge of sight I'm not alone in the endless blue The ocean dreams, and I dream too Blue light below me Slow breath, no shore The surface is fading I belong to the floor
