You've been away so long, I'm all empty and gray
But I hope you hear me now as I speak to you anyway
And I will follow you now it's my time
It wasn't part of the plan for you to go and leave me behind
Ooh, another fall from grace
Another day, I barely remember my name
Every day feels just the same
Ooh, and now we move so slow
Who knows where the time has gone?
It carries my spirit away
It buries my body beneath the waves
♪
You know I had to spend some time
To find a way to die, I failed each time
I bought a rope and it broke
I took a pill and I choked
I couldn't say goodbye
And I will follow you under the waves
The water receives me as I descend to my grave
Ooh, another fall from grace
Another day, I barely remember my name
Every day feels just the same
Ooh, and now we move so slow
Who knows where the time has gone?
It carries my spirit away
It buries my body beneath the waves
♪
Time has moved so slow
But now all the water is closing in
Time to let go
Push my head below
And soon I'll be lying with you again!
♪
I watched as your body decayed
I held you as you slipped away
But heaven was built as a garden for two
And someday soon, I would be following you
Ooh, and now I move so slow
Ooh, no, it's my time to go
It carries my spirit away
It buries me, it buries me under the waves
♪
It carries my spirit away
It buries me under the waves
It carries my spirit away
It buries me under the waves
