Daphne Willis Dark Water
Drop me down like a penny in a well
Buy a wish with the lies that you tell
How'd ya know I would sink so low
Just a fool with a heart of gold
Now it's ringing out clear as a bell
Chorus:
I been swimming in dark water
I been takin' every breath with a purpose
And the undertow's gettin' stronger
But I'm fighting my way to the surface
And you, you won't see me drownin'
I keep my head above this dark water
Cuz I believe that the tide will be turnin' in;
V2:
Hit the bottom like I'm wrapped in chains
Shadows cast on our cold remains
Shipwrecked on the ocean floor
But that ain't ever stopped me before
The only way out is through the pain
