Underground Song

Eric Matthews


journey to the middle and I find that I'm astray
catch me as I'm falling so we both stay in the game
how can I be with you when you say that I'm to blame
help me to the answers and I'll promise you my name
promise you my name

why can't I be true
why must I be constantly failing
when did it all run dry
where did I go I'm,
terribly sailing in waters that hate me

dream then I sleep for awhile
captive in ambulance, I'm sinking, I'm sickening
dream then I sleep for awhile
captive in ambulance

I'm safe underground, (safe underground)
relief in no sound, (relief in no sound)
safe underground, (safe underground)
relief in no sound, (relief in no sound)

no sound at all...

approach me in the morning and I'll tell you I'm insane
let down and convicted seeking something not yet named
why can't I remember those things numbered shame by shame
thanking God at midnight sometimes leaves my soul in flames
leaves my soul in flames

when will I be true
why can't I embrace the new healing
where am I tonight
where have I been but,
terribly drifting in waters that hate me

dream then I sleep for awhile
captive in ambulance, I'm sinking, I'm sickening
dream then I sleep for awhile
captive in ambulance

I'm safe underground, (safe underground)
relief in no sound, (relief in no sound)
safe underground, (safe underground)
relief in no sound, (relief in no sound)
I'm safe underground, (safe underground)
relief in no sound, (relief in no sound)
safe underground, (safe underground)
relief in no sound, (relief in no sound)

no sound at all...
