Breathe like water lyrics
Intro
Breathe like water
Verse 1 – female vocal
Feet bare on the floor
Heels sinking into the heat
Pre-Chorus
Lungs are open
Something is waiting for us in the dark
Chorus
Run under water
Bodies melting in the dark
Run under water
Skins becoming one, we don't leave here tonight
Verse 2 – male vocal
Necks entwined on the beat
Shoulders soft where shadows fall
Pre-Chorus
Lungs are open
Something is waiting for us in the dark
Chorus
Run under water
Bodies melting in the dark
Run under water
Skins becoming one, we don't leave here tonight
Bridge – layered chant
Breathe like water
Melt into the heat
No feet on solid ground
We're running under every time
Under every time
Every single time
Chorus
Run under water
Bodies melting in the dark
Run under water
Skins becoming one, we don't leave here tonight
