lyrics

One day I was swimming in the sea
The water was dark black and there was a silence of death
Then the waves started to move
And moved me inside of them
I could hear the sound they were doing playing with my hair
And later nothing, nothing... I began to disappear...
Ocean swallowed me into its depth
And I got down, deeper and deeper
My tears mixed with the rest of the water
And I couldn't cry anymore
At first I tried to swim up to the surface again
But I couldn't, then I let myself go deeper and deeper again
There was a strange light there into the sea...
No sound, I couldn't breathe, neither speak
But the good thing was...
I didn't need the air anymore... and I got deeper and deeper...
Until I reached the bottom of the sea
Sitting in the bottom of the ocean I can see fishes go by
And I don't know if I'm sad or happy
'cause I can't feel my own tears in my eyes here
Sitting in the bottom of the ocean
I'll never try to reach the surface again
'cause I know, deep inside, I could never get there
Sitting here in the bottom of the ocean.
No tears. No sound. No you.
