Tanuki
Diver
JUST LIKE BEFORE
YOU'LL FIND ME OUT BEYOND THE SHORE

I see the end, but that doesn't mean I've had enough
The water calls to me to take the plunge

I FEEL THE WILL
ON THE TIDE ON MY LIMBS
THE BROKEN SAILS ARE NOT ENOUGH
TO GUIDE ME FURTHER ON THE WIND

I've been torturing my lungs but I'm never coming up for air

Swallowed be the sea
I'm descending with no way out
No way, no way out
THE BLACK
It's staring back
IT'S SUNLESS
I know it's a long way down
I'm in too deep and buried by the sound

The hungry tide
Drags me out to the horizon
I am powerless to fight against the pull

The endless waves
I'm at the mercy of their sway
They'll never let me go

LET ME SINK
ALONG WITH EVERY VOICE THAT DARES TO SPEAK
THE CALM OF THE COLD
THE BITTER MESSAGES WE SENT
A PERILOUS FALL
AND A SILENT DESCENT

The fear has frozen every stretch of me
I'm dreading the depths beneath

Swallowed by the sea
I'm descending with no way out
No way, no way out
THE BLACK
It's staring back
IT'S SUNLESS
I know it's a long way down
I'm in too deep and buried by the sound

Buried by the sound
BURIED BY THE SOUND
Buried by the sound, sound, SOUND

A fall from these quiet heights
The pressure would break your heart
I'm taking this lonely dive
Out of familiar arms
And into the dark
