[Verse 1]

I was breaking up

I was breaking down

You were always there

Keeping me around

Pushing to the ground


[Verse 2]

You were holding on

Stopping me from moving

Yeah, you were always there

Keeping me around

Pushing to the ground

Pushing more and more

Until your hands were sore


[Chorus]

Sorry, I'll be the clay beneath

The weight of shame calling your name

You are the clearest water

And I can see right through you, into you


[Verse 3]

Head is in a pool

Crystal cold and pure

Let me lay awhile

Under watеr I wait

Choking on the waves

Fear is flowing down

Hеlping me to drown


[Chorus]

Sorry, I'll be the clay beneath

The weight of shame calling your name

You are the clearest water

And I can see right through you


[Outro]

And I can see right through you
