AlekShi - The Undertow

A thousand voices fading into white noise I left behind the bar lights and the boys ‘Cause every crowded room is just a ghost town Unless you're standing with me when the sun goes down. There’s nothing left for anyone to say. I found my universe, I found my quiet place, Right in the shadows of your beautiful face. ​ When the water rises, when the tide gets rough, Just one whisper from you is enough. ​ ‘Cause you’re my anchor in the pouring rain, The only beat that’s rushing through my veins. You hold me steady when the shoreline breaks, You're every breath my heavy lungs can take. If I lost your hand, if you let me go, I’d drown down in the dark, the undertow. Yeah, you’re the only world I’ll ever need, Without you, I'd sink into the deep. ​ You are my best friend and my midnight priest, A crowded room is just you and me. You say a million words with just a look. Out in the ocean where the lost ships lie, You are the lighthouse cutting through the sky. ​ When the water rises, when the tide gets rough, Just one touch from you is enough. ​ ‘Cause you’re my anchor in the pouring rain, The only beat that’s rushing through my veins. You hold me steady when the shoreline breaks, You're every breath my heavy lungs can take. If I lost your hand, if you let me go, I’d drown down in the dark, the undertow. Yeah, you’re the only world I’ll ever need, Without you, I'd sink into the deep. ​ Some call it crazy, say I'm in too deep, But you’re the only promise that I keep. Let the oceans swallow up the earth, As long as I’ve got you, I know my worth. You are my gravity, my saving grace, The only shelter in this hollow place. ​ Keep me afloat. Don't let me drown. You're my anchor... My only sound. Yeah, my only sound.
