Innocent they swim
I tell them no
And they just dive right in
But do they know
It's a lonely dawn
When you're alone
There's no air or sound
Down below the surface

There's something in the water
I do not feel safe
It always feels like torture
To be this close
I wish that I was stronger
I'd separate the waves
Not just let the water take me away

There was a time I did my fit
And it would roll off my skin
Now every time I get close to the edge
I'm scared of falling in
Cause I don't want to be stranger in again
on my own
When the tide comes in and throws me below
the surface

There's something in the water
I do not feel safe
It always feels like torture
To be this close
I wish that I was stronger
I'd separate the waves
Not just let the water take me away
