[Verse 1] You keep sayin’ you can read me like a tide, But you don't know the water when it’s calm, just when it’s wild. You only see the shoreline, not the storms beneath my smile, And you keep wading closer like you’re staying for a while. You touch me like you’re fearless, like you’re not afraid to drown, Like saltwater on your skin feels like home instead of weightin’ you down. But currents got a mind of their own, they twist you all around— Don’t dive unless you mean it, I don’t do halfway now. [Pre-Chorus] If you think this surface is all I’ve got, You’re missin’ where the real waves start. You’re standin’ where the sunlight drops, But the ocean keeps the softer parts. [Chorus] I’m deeper than I look, I’ll pull you where you’ve never been, Got shadows in the blue, and a quiet that can settle in. But if you let the current take you, you might find a place to breathe— Yeah, I’m deeper than I look, come close and see what’s underneath. [Verse 2] I speak in sonar pulses, half the things I feel you hear, More like dolphins in the distance than a whisper in your ear. I’m better in the silence when the world ain’t interferin’— When you’re the only one who understands the shiftin’ of my fear. You move like you’ve been swimmin’ in my thoughts for quite some time, Like seashells on the ocean floor reveal a message left behind. You read between the empty space like something written in the brine— And I keep lettin’ you get closer, though I never meant to try. [Pre-Chorus] If you think this calm is all I show, You should see when the moon pulls low. There’s a whole world in the undertow, That only fits one soul to know. [Chorus] I’m deeper than I look, I’ll pull you where you’ve never been, Got shadows in the blue, and a quiet that can settle in. But if you let the current take you, you might find a place to breathe— Yeah, I’m deeper than I look, come close and see what’s underneath. [Bridge] Maybe you’re the kind of driftin’ heart Who’s never found a tide to match— Maybe I’m the ocean waitin’ For someone who won’t turn back. If you follow where the water calls, You might find out what I hid— The parts of me that rise like waves Only when the moonlight hits. [Final Chorus + Outro] I’m deeper than I look, don’t fear the place the light don’t touch, You move like you belong down here, like currents don’t scare you much. If you let the water hold you, you might hear the truth I keep— Yeah, I’m deeper than I look… Come close and see what’s underneath. (Drift with me— If you dare to breathe— Somewhere underneath…)
