[Verse 1: Mike Hranica]

The idea is simple, to be underwater

Hold my breath, sink deeper

Say a prayer, sink deeper

You might consider this surrender, but I’m descending:

Constructing a most pleasant ending

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Hranica]

I can still see the city, I can still recognize

[Chorus: Mike Hranica, Jeremy DePoyster]

To remain is to be separated

I can still see the city

To carry on is to be divided

I can still redefine

[Post-Chorus: Mike Hranica, Jeremy DePoyster]

I’ve been spending time

Trying to keep outside of the light

I’ve been spending time

At the bottom

At the bottom

[Verse 2: Mike Hranica]

You would not believe how true the salt feels

Oh God, the relief of oceanic sleep

[Pre-Chorus: Mike Hranica]

I can still see the city, I can still recognize

[Chorus: Mike Hranica, Jeremy DePoyster]

To remain is to be separated

I can still see the city

To carry on is to be divided

I can still redefine

[Bridge: Mike Hranica, Jeremy DePoyster]

The cliché says that it’s sink or swim

But that’s another lie we’ve been drowning in

(I've been spending time)

The cliché says that it’s sink or swim

But that’s another lie we’ve been drowning in

[Outro: Jeremy DePoyster]

I've been spending time

I've been spending time
