I learned to breathe underwater When I turned nine I had to learn how to save myself I'm still alive How does it feel to be 20 or 25? Well I can hardly remember, I just survive So when we met I was startled, I finally awoke Blew out a breath full of water now that I'm not alone I got a taste of the surface, I can't let it go I used to sink but now I float Slow down, stop rushing this It feels like nothing else matters now Love and lust can co-exist, so let's take our time You said the days are getting shorter and you were right 'Cause all the stars were appearing, they multiplied And so the more surrendered, the farther we fell It was either you or the moment or both that I held? As we descended on each other it got harder to tell And now I can't control myself Hearts that race and breath that stains Covers ours to wear So when we wake up underwater, I'll be there
