Algae

Rise up, rise up Don't you look down Eyes shut, eyes shut Why look around? High up, high up You can't see the ground Hold tight on my cuff We'll never drown I can't sit and listen to the waves hit I don't want the rhythm to keep changing I ain't saying nature isn't sacred But I just want to listen to the same thing Hands holding hands You holding me More I want more I want to be free Neighbors and friends Holding me, holding you We can escape But what would we do? I don't want to spend my whole life waiting But I guess I need a system to be brave in They say as you get deeper things start fading The brightest colors haze into a gray blend My love, my love Please stick around If our time is up I'm going down My kin, my kin Don't leave me alone Even if I could swim I wouldn't know where to go
