The Ocean Floor - Electric President

It’s hard to get a solid breath down here

My lungs are burning

The pressure is as thick as my fear

But it’s worth what I’m learning

'cause down in these depths I can see

Our history unfurling

Come, I’ll show you what we’ve lost

Light’s just a memory down here

Like lost change in couches

There’s nothing for as far as I can see

But remnants of houses

And up and down abandoned streets

I count the empty cars

And these skyscrapers don’t scrape a thing anymore

The earth reclaimed these homes

Took this world in as its own

Now it grows along the bones

Draws life from what we’d sewn

There are worlds beneath our world

Hidden deep beneath the skin

We always peel the layers back again

We peel the layers back again

We peel the layers back again

We peel the layers back again
