Underwater Bride Lyrics

Help me stay awake, I'm falling asleep and I don't want to fall asleep while you're here,
I'm gonna leave when the alarm clock beeps and it will beep any moment my dear,
And all that we have will be locked into memory like everything that we've had before,
So I will stay awake and I'll watch the fire burning and keep the hungry wolves from the door

Help me find my way back to the breadcrumbs; I've wandered alone through the trees,
The lights are dimming in the windows of the houses and my heart is starting to freeze,
Said we have a light but we won't use it, we're scared we'll lose it, if we don't use it then we'll die here in the dark
And they will find us, hopeless and helpless, and clutching our frozen hearts.

And you and I, well, we'll be buried side by side and time, it won't mean a thing,
I'll be your underground groom, you'll be my underground bride

Please can you help me keep my head above the water, I have cramping in both of my calves,
Yeah, my lungs are filling up with cold, dirty water, but I've a sickness that is making me laugh,
Said we have a boat but we don't think it, we're scared we'll sink it, but we'll drink it if we never find that raft,
And we will sink down to the bottom of the ocean with the fishes that glow in the dark.

And you and I, well, we'll sink down side by side, and time, it won't mean a thing,
I'll be your underwater groom, you'll be my underwater bride

And, oh, the lights are fading, my love,
And, oh, the water's filling me up,
And, oh, the lights are fading, my love
