Oxenford Clerk - This Must Be the Bottom Lyrics

I'm falling backward
With these stones inside my pockets
To the deepest part of water
Trying to make my body sink
Can I surrender without giving up too much?
Can I surrender without giving up?

I close my eyes as I submerge
Commit to memory
The sun's refraction on the surface
Last thing I'll see
My heart's in suspended motion
This must be the bottom of the ocean

Oh, this must be the bottom of the ocean
Where I thought it wouldn't trail
I'm looking all around
I can't see the sun no more
The pressure's higher
To drink up the entire Atlantic
Until I drown
Right now the weight's a little heavy on me

So if I'm floating
It's just salt straining to carry my weight
I gave up treading
When my life jacket wouldn't inflate
No one knows if I'm alive
No one knows if I've sunk to the bottom

And it's so dark I cannot tell
Which way is up or down
There's so much water 'bove my head
Even the light has drowned
I am deluged in emotion
This must be the bottom of the ocean

This must be the bottom of the ocean
Where I thought it wouldn't trail
I'm looking all around
I can't see the sun no more
The pressure's higher
To drink up the entire Atlantic
Until I drown
Right now the weight's a little heavy on me

This must be the bottom of the ocean
This must be the bottom of the ocean
This must be the bottom of the ocean
This must be the bottom of the ocean

This must be the bottom of the ocean
Where I thought it wouldn't trail
I'm looking all around
I can't see the sun no more
The pressure's higher
To drink up the entire Atlantic
Until I drown
Right now the weight's a little heavy on me

This must be the bottom of the ocean
Where I thought it wouldn't trail
I'm looking all around
I can't see the sun no more
The pressure's higher
To drink up the entire Atlantic
Until I drown
Right now the weight's a little heavy on me
