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 safe 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 calamities 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
