Heartsmith - Water In My Ears Lyrics

I take a deep breath in
Like my therapist said
But it doesn't help
When I'm deprived of oxygen
With water above my head
Instead it hurts like hell

Oh I can hear your voice
But it's muffled by the noise
Of water in my ears

And I'm trying
All that's been asked of me
Honey you need to breathe
But how can I
When there's no air
Can you not see
That there's no air

I can see your face
Distorted by the waves
Telling me to swim
But I am stuck in place
Screaming for your hand's embrace
And now my fate
Is looking grim

Oh I can hear your voice
But it's muffled by the noise
Of water in my ears

And I'm trying
All that's been asked of me
Honey you need to breathe
But how can I
When there's no air
Oh please notice
There's no air

Please teach me to swim
When I'm not already drowning
Please reach out your hand
Cause I will never learn
If I stop breathing

I could hear your voice
But it was muffled by the noise
Of water in my ears
And I tried
All that was asked of me
But I still couldn't breathe
And now there's too much
Water for air
