Underwater Blues
Blue, for love of the depressed days
Underwater I live or die
Nowhere can I really hide
Bewildered the water dismays
Sky absorbs the winter hunger
A floating bird doesn’t blunder
Sadness pulls me under and lays
Casts spells of confusion bequeath
Leaves me to fall, sink underneath
I’m frozen with sorrow always
Constantly I am beaten down
To hold the great ocean god’s crown
I do not hear what the sea says
While keeping me there with sadness
I must have strength to rid of stress
With all my strength I start to pray
Not knowing if there’s any hope
I see that I must stand and cope
Blue, for love of the depressed days
Bewildered the water dismays
Sadness pulls me under and lays
I’m frozen with sorrow always
I do not hear what the sea says
With all my strength I start to pray
