lyrics

I dangled my feet in the Sargasso Sea
Took in a breath and plunged to the deep
When I opened my eyes the water came in
So clear and cold, alive within

The shape of my memory is starting to change
It scatters and drifts in the shallow reeds
The American eels are building their dens
From the people I know and the places I’ve been

The only way is down
The only way is down
In search of the sound

I’ve abandoned all hope of seeing the sky
Come face to face with a permanent night
I suddenly fear that I’m losing my mind
To a mad woman’s song and a sea creature’s cry

The only way is down
The only way is down
In search of the sound
