Love the harmonies here, reminiscent of good Elton John

"Submerged" lyrics

 Don’t go back to sleep, the sun is now with us.
You’ve been hiding in these sheets for a while.
I promise you one day you’re fears will unfold.
Like your mother told you, we soon will be old.

And you cant start breathing when you live under water.
And you cant quite see all there is to offer.
And you wait til your bleeding to find any shelter.

It’s a great thing to live in this universe
As long as you have some sense of self worth 
A lifelong wish to be better tomorrow
Your flesh may bruise but your bones are not hallowed. 

In the lion’s den, a coward moves forward.
Looking for answers in a place known to harm.
The coward finds love in a dangerous place.
Their family watched as color left the face.

And you cant find purpose when you’re shell-shocked and wasted. 
And you can’t unsee powers of the tainted.
And you wait for next year to mend what has faded.

It’s a great thing to live in this universe
As long as you have some sense of self worth 
A lifelong wish to be better tomorrow
Your flesh may bruise but your bones are not hallowed. 

It’s been a lifetime of synthetic emotion.
The jumper cables to your heart seem to be broken.
The past appears to watch you from old picture frames.
Collecting dust, those friends have forgotten your name.

And you’re sound asleep intending to stay there.
And your powdered candy could never taste sweeter.
And the final train home left last year

It’s a great thing to live in this universe
As long as you have some sense of self worth 
A lifelong wish to be better tomorrow
Your flesh may bruise but your bones are not hallowed.
