Keys - How To Breathe Underwater Lyrics

The weight of the water presses on my skin
A flood of memories I'm trapped within
Every gasp for air pulls me deeper down
How to breathe underwater, how not to drown
When the surface disappears from sight
Do you fight the tide or become the night
How to breathe underwater, how to let go
In the depths of the ocean, where no light will show
The pressure is crushing, the silence is loud
How to breathe underwater, beneath the shroud
The current pulls, but I hold my ground
A rhythm of survival in the lost-and-found
The deeper I sink, the clearer it feels
How to breathe underwater, how to heal
How to breathe underwater, how to let go
In the depths of the ocean, where no light will show
The pressure is crushing, the silence is loud
How to breathe underwater, beneath the shroud
If I can't rise, I'll become the wave
A force of nature, unafraid
The ocean's voice becomes my own
How to breathe underwater, how to grow
If the world is drowning, I'll learn to breathe
In a sea of silence, I'll find reprieve
How to breathe underwater, how to be
