SkyBabyRecords: Music & Lyrics
Treading Water
(Cellarscape)
i feel pictures and poltergeists the same: both play tricks on me.
ghosts come and go,
but photos – they remain,
and make me question this.
i’m just treading water, are you?
but i can hold my breath,
can you? tell the truth.
tell the truth.
the ocean won’t speak,
but knows every secret
we released.
break the clock
and break the surface.
shock your system like before.
fear the teeth
beneath the night and…
i’m just treading water, are you?
but i can hold my breath,
tell the truth.
i’m just treading water,
are you?
