Lirieke: Red. Until We Have Faces. Buried Beneath.

My eyes have adjusted to dark and so is my heart
The weight of the world has covered me
I'm in over my head
Am I living or dead
Can anyone hear me calling out
I'm calling out

Finally breaking so where are you now
It's been such a long time
But I've tried to live without
I'm suffocating I need you to breathe
So reach down and pull me up
Pull me up before I am buried beneath

I built this house on the shore
All I want was more
But I felt the sand start shifting
I saw the cracks in the walls
I painted over them all
I tried my best to just ignore
I can't ignore

Finally breaking so where are you now
It's been such a long time
But I've tried to live without
I'm suffocating I need you to breathe
So reach down and pull me up
Pull me up before I am buried beneath

I Thought I was climbing out
But it's dragging me down
What's hidden here with me
Thought I was alone
But it pulls me deeper now
I can't escape

Finally breaking so where are you now
It's been such a long time
But I've tried to live without
I'm suffocating I need you to breathe
So reach down and pull me up
Pull me up before I am buried beneath
