Head Underwater

Lyrics

I been wearing all black since the day it started
 When I stopped and looked back as my mind departed
 I been losing sleep and I cannot sit still, oh
 I'm not the same woman that you were used to, oh
 I put my head underwater, baby
 I threw my clothes away in the trash
 I stood barefoot on the blazing concrete
 I was waiting for the gut of the thunder to crash
 I don't wanna bore you with how I feel
 But when the walls came down, the shit got real, oh
 I never thought I would ever be here
 Looking out on my life as if there was no there, there
 I messed around with somethin' I always hated
 I took a blanket into the bath
 Opened my eyes and hallucinated
 I took a nap and woke up in the grass
 There's a little bit of magic, everybody has it
 There's a little bit of sand left in the hourglass
 ♪
 My own mortality, I contemplated
 Down in the valley I got hypnotized
 It left a mark that hasn't faded
 That's when I realized
 There's a little bit of magic, everybody has it
 There's a little bit of sand left in the hourglass
 There's a little bit of magic, everybody has it
 There's a little bit of fight left in me yet
 I put my head underwater, baby
 I held my breath until it passed
 Crossed my fingers and concentrated
 I closed my eyes and I was free at last
