It isn't great tryin' to breathe
From the bottom of the fate lake
I feel the vibes as feet of Christ go by
Large and small and fast they fall
Under meltin' summer sky
Prayin' for my dear breath
Don't want to face my fear of d**h
Dredge and fork and dive and fish
For everyone's best wish
But still with my eyes and ears
Without breath, even still
I like it down here in waterk**
Without breath, even still
I like it down here in waterk**
Separate from the shoal of unserious
Who fed upon my dwindlin' life
Robbed what dim and dyin' soul that I might
Settled in the nervous core
Days down, recollectin' youth before
Holdin' my dear self
Don't want to feel my flesh unfelt
Slowest tortoise, fastest shark
I watch from the bottom of the lake dark
Slowest tortoise, fastest shark
I watch from the bottom of the lake dark
