Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I watch the waves distort what's real
Through ripples everything transforms
You're somewhere on the other side
But signals get confused below
[Pre-Chorus]
The frequencies are bending now
My mind plays tricks, I lose my way
The surface breaks above my head
Can't tell which way leads back to you
[Chorus]
Everything looks different from down here
(Different from down here)
The lights above bend strange and disappear
(Strange and disappear)
Everything looks different from down here
(Different from down here)
I'm sinking deeper year by year
[Verse 2]
The pressure builds against my chest
Each breath becomes a heavy weight
I used to know these streets by heart
Now nothing feels the same at all
[Rap Verse]
Started with a simple dive, thought I'd resurface right away
But the current pulled me under, now I'm forced to stay
Every street sign warped and twisted, address numbers fade
Radio waves hit different when they penetrate these waves
Remember when we walked these blocks, everything was clear
Now I drift through altered landscapes, nothing perseveres
Try to reach the shore you're standing on, but my legs are lead
Messages you send get garbled, floating overhead
Gravity hits different in this liquid atmosphere
Time moves slow like molasses, minutes turn to years
They say I should just swim up, like it's easy to escape
But down here in the deep end, everything's at stake
Used to see the world like you do, everything aligned
Now my vision's corrupted, reality's redesigned
Through the water's lens I'm watching as my life refracts
While you stand there on dry land, wondering if I'll come back
[Breakdown]
Ooooooh, I'm going under
(Further, deeper, colder)
Aaaaah, lost my direction
(Drifting, falling, slower)
[Electronic breakdown intensifies]
[Bridge]
The pressure's getting stronger now
I barely recognize this place
The lights above grow dim and faint
As depths pull me away from grace
[Chorus]
Everything looks different from down here
(Different from down here)
The lights above bend strange and disappear
(Strange and disappear)
Everything looks different from down here
(Different from down here)
I'm sinking deeper year by year
[Outro]
Can you still see me?
Through the waves between us?
Can you still hear me?
Through the depths between us?
(Oooooh...)
