Breakage - Treading Water lyrics

[Verse 1] Don't let go and slip down into the deep I'll hold you up but it's harder and harder to see Down here, where the light fades The sound of our loving is swallowed inside, there's nowhere to hide [Chorus] Always live for love, you said Never live for pain, you said So why are we trapped in this slipstream of me? We both can't tread water [Verse 2] There's more to this than can ever be the truth Steel blue on my lips and the taste, the taste of you Like ribbons round my neck, the tide tightens, the dark lightens But I won't leave, I won't let go, you're all I've ever known [Chorus] [Bridge] You're drowning in me And you're pulling me, pulling me down The water is rising Rising up in me And I can't look away And I can't breathe It's all disappearing, it's all slowly sinking And I just need to leave
