[Verse 1]
F
Into the depths
C G Am F
Swimming where pitch black water blurs
C Am Em
Where does it start and I begin?
F
Fixed to a sun
C G Am F
Scared at the thought of leaving it
C G
Where all that remains is what I choose to be
[Chorus]
F C Bb Am
And I’m parting with a hollow version of what I thought I knew
F C Bb Am N.C.
That it’s not just about how we grow but what we can undo
[Verse 2]
F
Tangled in knots
C
Peeling at layers
G F
Holding in words stuck in time
C Am Em
Living in me
F
To live what I’m not
C G F
Reflecting a twisted logic’s hold
C G
I want to know how it feels to be free
[Chorus]
F C Bb Am
And I’m parting with a hollow version of what I thought I knew
F C Bb Am N.C.
And I’m grateful for the ways I’ve been shown what I can undo
