Surfacing

Sounds move just too fast When you're in the deep Swirling all around me I just can't tell which ways up Tiny bubbles below me Swirling all around I think that I'm sinkin' But I don't know Too buoyant, rising fast Long exhales Slowly inflate your chest Just breath shallow Look up and don't panic Ascending! When you're dragged down and you're sinkin' just too deep You gotta look up, don't rise too fast Just feel it happening Surfacing Surfacing Surfacing Surfacing Check your gauges Your tank is dry Lungs burn and you're kicking Be sure to breathe off your excess Decompression is your friend Prays the lung comes calling back 'Cause right now almost blinding Then you pass through the thermocline Push past the surface tension When they drag you down and sink you in the deep Just look up, let the past go 'Cause you're surfacing Surfacing Surfacing Surfacing Surfacing
