Freedive

From the surface where
Light meets water
Breathe in, push down
To the deep where I am
Just creature
Just bone, just flesh
Just blood, just breath

What's a tear that falls 
Underwater
Just you, just me
What is weightlessness
With a stranger
Two hearts, one sea

Where I come from
We don't deserve your trust
What we're made of
We couldn't earn your love

Like a spring from the center of the ocean
Breathe in, push down
There's a gaze that can cut through my commotion
Breathe in, push down

What are words when two are
Beholding
Just you, just me
When the tear and wave are
Communing
Just salt, just sea

Where I come from 
We don't deserve your trust
What we're made of
We couldn't earn your love
Where I come from
We use our strength to crush
What would happen
If we received your trust?

All my days I dream of
Returning
Breathe in, push down
To the deep where I am
Just creature
Just bone, just flesh
Just blood, just breath
