Deep

##Voice: WorldPatterns##

We as people are made to adapt, even if that means adapting to one's self. While it sounds simple, the task itself is incredibly complex...deeper than any ocean we know...

## Verse 1

Surface tension holding me above

What I was afraid to know

Treading water all my life

Never learning how to go

Down below where pressure builds

Where the light begins to fade

That's where all my answers lived

In the depths I never braved

## Pre-Chorus

But you can't breathe shallow forever

Can't stay floating on the lies

Time to fill these lungs with courage

Time to close these surface eyes

## Chorus

Going down into the deep waters

Where the current knows my name

Past the point of no return now

Nothing left will be the same

Diving through the crushing darkness

Till I find my ocean floor

Every fathom down revealing

Who I was before the war

## Verse 2

Found the wreckage of old dreams

Scattered on the sandy ground

Coral reefs of buried trauma

Growing beauty all around

Schools of memories swimming by

Some silver, some like sharks

Learning which ones feed my soul

Which ones hunt me in the dark

Pressure here could crush a person

Or it could forge them into steel

First time in my life I'm breathing

First time anything feels real

## Bridge

There are creatures in the deep

That create their own damn light

Born to shine in places where

The sun has never been in sight

That's what I am, that's what I am

Bioluminescent soul

Lighting up the ocean floor

Finally feeling whole

## Final Chorus

Swimming free in these deep waters

Where the current speaks my truth

Found the treasure in the darkness

Found the fountain of my youth

Rising now but never leaving

This abyss that made me strong

Deep waters run through my veins now

This is where I belong

## Outro

Deep waters...

Run through my veins now

I am the tide

I am the change

I am home
