If I told you I loved you, dear
I might as well kill you
It’s you that I do it for
From the depths in the ocean floor

Love is the undertow that kills
It tempts you and twists you, it will
It steals all the open air
It sucks you to the bottom of where you are
It wants you to drown

I wanted to love you with my will
Only to fail; I wanted to feel
Love is the undertow that kills
Twist you it will
Love is what kills

Breathe underwater love
You’ll feel the pressure in your lungs
It’s me that you do it for
The depths of the ocean floor
Love wants us to drown

I wanted to love you with my will
Only to fail; I wanted to feel
Love is the undertow that kills
Twist you it will
Love is what kills

I wanted to love you with my will
Only to fail; I wanted to feel
But love is the undertow that kills
Twist you it will
Love is what kills

I wanted to love you with my will
Only to fail; I wanted to feel
But love is the undertow that kills
Twist you it will
Love is what kills
