Algae /
Ready for Anything

Rise up, rise up // Don't you look down
Eyes shut, eyes shut // Why look around?
High up, high up // You can't see the ground
Hold tight on my cuff // We'll never drown

I can't sit and listen to the waves hit
I don't want the rhythm to keep changing
I ain’t saying nature isn't sacred
But I just want to listen to the same thing

Hands holding hands // You holding me
More I want more // I want to be free
Neighbors and friends // Holding me, holding you
We can escape // But what would we do?

I don't want to spend my whole life waiting
But I guess I need a system to be brave in
They say as you get deeper things start fading
The brightest colors haze into a gray blend

My love, my love // Please stick around
If our time is up // I'm going down
My kin, my kin // Don't leave me alone
Even if I could swim // I wouldn’t know where to go
