Under the weather or down underwater
Glasses fogged up, further seemed forever
You found a rock so rock-bottom hard
And there stood your ground
So you held on, held on so tight
You held on for life
You soldiered on. You soldiered on
Until the dawn
You soldiered on until your heart was gone
But you still carried on
You were reaching new heights way deep below surface
Eyes couldn’t adjust
So shimmer just got weirder (and weirder and weirder)
You found a cloud as soft as a bed
And rained on parades
But you held on, Held on so tight
You held on for life
But here comes dawn: you can let go just let go now
Find some way back home
And if homes ain’t where they used to be: just let go
In time you’ll build them back
