[Intro]
Are you scared?
Can your feet touch the bottom?
How far is the sand?
Are you inches or miles from where you can stand?
Are you lost?
You've lost sight of the shoreline
Is this what you planned?
Is that kelp at your ankle or is it a hand?
[Verse 1]
You must be scared, and you're right to fear
Your mind is racing, seeking escape
Holding your breath - what's left should be dear
Don't bother fighting; now it's too late
[Chorus]
I am the undertow
Come take my hand; I'll drag you below
I am the riptide
Leading you down, your saltwater bride
Catching your clothes and pulling you near
Can't you hear mе calling?
It ebbs and flows, the tide of your fеar
Give yourself to falling
I am the riptide
I am the undertow
[Verse 2]
Why are you scared? There's peace in defeat
This could be easy: Only let go
Try to believe the end could be sweet
Sleep is a kindness I can bestow
[Chorus]
I am the undertow
Come take my hand; I'll drag you below
I am the riptide
Leading you down, your saltwater bride
Catching your clothes and pulling you near
Can't you hear me calling?
It ebbs and flows, the tide of your fear
Give yourself to falling
I am the riptide
I am the undertow
[Outro]
Are you scared?
Can your feet touch the bottom?
How far is the sand?
Are you inches or miles from where you can stand?
Are you scared?
Can your feet touch the bottom?
How far is the sand?
Are you inches or miles from where you can stand?
Are you lost?
You've lost sight of the shoreline
Is this what you planned?
Is that kelp at your ankle or is it a hand?
[Verse 1]
You must be scared, and you're right to fear
Your mind is racing, seeking escape
Holding your breath - what's left should be dear
Don't bother fighting; now it's too late
[Chorus]
I am the undertow
Come take my hand; I'll drag you below
I am the riptide
Leading you down, your saltwater bride
Catching your clothes and pulling you near
Can't you hear mе calling?
It ebbs and flows, the tide of your fеar
Give yourself to falling
I am the riptide
I am the undertow
[Verse 2]
Why are you scared? There's peace in defeat
This could be easy: Only let go
Try to believe the end could be sweet
Sleep is a kindness I can bestow
[Chorus]
I am the undertow
Come take my hand; I'll drag you below
I am the riptide
Leading you down, your saltwater bride
Catching your clothes and pulling you near
Can't you hear me calling?
It ebbs and flows, the tide of your fear
Give yourself to falling
I am the riptide
I am the undertow
[Outro]
Are you scared?
Can your feet touch the bottom?
How far is the sand?
Are you inches or miles from where you can stand?
