Ugly Purple Sweater - The Water's Edge lyrics

You took a big breath ‘fore you went down It won't last long, no no no no no But good god, it's good to stay down You look back up at the surface now There's a storm above, but you stay so still Good god, it's good to stay down When your blood is blue and you come up with a gasp You've drifted far from shore Even though the water's edge is far away from here You know it'll be alright You know it'll be just fine There's seagulls circling above Now you've got water in your brain If you turn fast it'll slosh around Good god, you have to get it out You start to swim with your head held high Your limbs are stiff 'cause you've been so still Good god, it's good to go back You took a big breath ‘fore you went down It won't last long, no no no no no But good god, it's good to stay down
