Under the Water

The Pretty Reckless

   Lay my head, under the water
   Lay my head, under the sea
   Excuse me sir, am I your daughter?
   Won't you take me back, take me back and see?
   There's not a time, for being younger
   And all my friends, are enemies
   And if I cried unto my mother
   No she wasn't there, she wasn't there for me
   
   Don't let the water drag you down
   (Don't let the water drag you down)
   Don't let the water drag you down
   
   Broken lines, across my mirror
   Show my face, all red and bruised
   And though I screamed and I screamed, well no one came running
   No I wasn't saved, I wasn't saved from you
   
   Don't let the water drag you down
   (Don't let the water drag you down)
   Don't let the water drag you down
   
   Don't let me drown, don't let me drown in the waves, oh
   I could be found, I could be what you had saved
   
   Saved, saved, saved
   
   Lay my head, under the water
   Aloud I pray, for calmer seas
   And when I wake from this dream, with chains all around me
   No, I've never been, I've never been free
   No, I've never been, I've never been free
   No, I've never been, I've never been free
