[Intro]

Prepare the diving bell

It's time to take this low again

I sink into myself, low

No need for farewell

I know you always understand

[Verse 1]

Sorry there's no place for you inside the solitude

Just stay up here until I'm back again

I swear I'll be there for you

I swear I'll follow through

Stay the course and keep the ship manned

[Pre-Chorus 1]

I was certain if I fell through the bottom

You'd be happy just to float here on your own

I was never quite prepared for the long ride, oh

Away, away, away, alone

[Chorus]

Oh, this wasn't in my plans

Abandoned ship and heading for the sand

Oh, the albatross crash-lands

I've got the sinking feeling that I never can go home

If I stare into the abyss

Will it stare into me? (Home)

If I stare into the abyss

Will it stare into me? (Home)

If I stare into the abyss

Will it stare into me? (Home)

If I stare into the abyss

Will it stare into me?

[Verse 2]

Prepare the diving bell

Maybe just for a spell, again

As far as I can tell

Oh, you knew me too well

I miss you there when I descend

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Sorry, there's no place for you inside the solitude

Just stay up here until I'm back again

[Chorus]

Oh, this wasn't in my plans

Abandoned ship and heading for the sand

Oh, the albatross crash-lands

I've got the sinking feeling that I never can go home

If I stare into the abyss

Will it stare into me? (Home)

If I stare into the abyss

Will it stare into me? (Home)

If I stare into the abyss

Will it stare into me? (Home)

If I stare into the abyss

Will it stare into me?

[Bridge]

In my mind, endless sea

Calling from the bottom, but you don't hear me

Send your line down to me

Meet me on the surface

I will never leave

In my mind, endless sea

Calling from the bottom, but you don't hear me

Send your line down to me

Meet me on the surface

I will never leave

Just one time, all I need

Calling from the bottom but you don't hear me

Stuck in time, stuck in me

Broken on the bottom like a refugee

[Outro]

Wake me when the new day comes

Together we will ride the sun

The future is an empty gun

We ride on to them one-by-one

Wake me when the new day comes

Together we will ride the sun

The future is an empty gun

We ride on to them one-by-one

Wake me when the new day comes

Together we will ride the sun

The future is an empty gun

We ride on to them one-by-one

One-by-one
