Diving Bell

Are we waiting now? Are we waiting now?
Dissolving clocks, eroding blood
While your eyes refuse to blink

It’s raining now. It rains us out.
Cracked windows burned by the flood
Reddening eyes and expanding lungs

And we’re still taking in water
Fearing the surface, fearing the air
And were still here taking in water
No cries for help, not so much as a prayer

Is it draining yet? Is it draining yet?
Are we still floating in distilled dreams
Fishing for a way out

There’s no wait this time
To pray through lies
And wait this time
To sway a crime

And nobody came to save…

Are we waiting now?
Are we waiting now?

Are you waiting…still?
Because I’m not here anymore.
