undertow - r.e.m. lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i know what i wanted, i know what i wanted
i know how i wanted this to be
go down to the water, drink down of the water
walk up off the water, leave it be
but this is not my dream, sister, it is cold in heaven
and i’m not sprouting wings

[chorus]
i’m drowning me
i’m drowning me
yeah

[verse 2]
brother, can you see those birds? they don’t look to heaven
but they don’t need religion, they can see
they go down to the water, drink down on the water
fly up off the water, leave them be
but this is not my time, sister, it is cold in heaven
and no one’s coming after me

[chorus]
i’m drowning me
(breathing ourselves)
i’m drowning me
(breathing ourselves)
yeah

[verse 3]
you know i am tired, cold and bony tired
nothing’s going to save me, i can see
i can’t say i’m fearful, i can’t say i’m not afraid
but i am not resisting, i can see
now, i don’t need a heaven, and i don’t need religion
i am in the place where i should be
i am breathing water, i am breathing water
you know a body’s got to breathe

[chorus]
i’m drowning me
(breathing ourselves, breathing ourselves)
i’m drowning me
(breathing ourselves)
i’m drowning me
(breathing ourselves, breathing ourselves)
i’m drowning me
(breathing ourselves)
