Undertow

[Intro] (Instrumental, 8 bars. Loopy psychedelic → hazy dreamy electric guitar + soft wave samples, no vocal) [Verse 1] Waves creep slow across the quiet bay I trace the current where dark currents sway No sharp alarms, no loud rush in my veins Quiet momentum underneath the haze Shadows drift along the waterline I read the signs hidden in the moonlight shine Don’t need a storm to shift where I reside Steady motion carries through the tide [Pre-Chorus] Air grows thick, salt upon my skin Every subtle shift pulls me deeper in Not rushing fast, we let the moment spin Hold the calm before the wave begins [Chorus] We ride the swell where the horizon bends Glide through depths where the quiet fire extends Move slow, let the undertow descend Sail this space where our true feeling blends [Verse 2] Foam dissolves when it touches the stone Hidden ripples travel far, unknown I watch the surface, mask what lies below Soft vibration ready to unfold No sudden crash to break this steady beat The sea keeps secrets underneath its heat We move in sync with what the tides complete Gentle force that’s hard to ever meet [Pre-Chorus] Air grows thick, salt upon my skin Every subtle shift pulls me deeper in Not rushing fast, we let the moment spin Hold the calm before the wave begins [Chorus] We ride the swell where the horizon bends Glide through depths where the quiet fire extends Move slow, let the undertow descend Sail this space where our true feeling blends [Bridge] Silent surge beneath the glassy blue What’s unseen is pulling me toward you No violent surge, no reckless breaking through Just endless drift, the way the waters do [Final Chorus] We ride the swell where the horizon bends Glide through depths where the quiet fire extends Move slow, let the undertow descend Sail this space where our true feeling blends [Outro] Ride the swell Quiet tide Slowly drift Fade away (Instrumental fade, whispered vocal chops, wave samples fade out)
