Speaking about the song, Mika said "I kept on saying to everyone, 'look, I want this song to feel like that
Michel Gondry's Levi commercial''... Some sailor falls off his shipping boat, and gets rescued by a bunch of topless mermaids who start making out with him and undressing him and then its kind of to-be-continued, but you don't see the rest of it. And I was like 'it'd be great to have a pop song inspired by that."
Underwater
Mika Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A slow landslide
And the world we leave behind
It's enough to lose your head
Disappear and not return again
When I fall to my feet
Wearin' my heart on my sleeve
You are the port of my call
You shot and leavin' me raw
Now I know you're amazing
'Cause all I need is the love you breathe
Put your lips on me
And I can live under water, under water, under water (ooh)
Under water (ooh)
Flying through a bright blue sky
With a space boy high
From the world I leave behind
It's enough to lose my head
Disappear and not be seen again
When I fall to my feet
Wearin' my heart on my sleeve
All I see just don't make sense
You are the port of my call
You shot and leavin' me raw
Now I know you're amazing
'Cause all I need is the love you breathe
Put your lips on me
And I can live under water, under water, under water (ooh)
Under water (under water, under water, I can live under water)
With your love, I can breathe, I can breathe under water
Under water, under water, I can live under water
With your love, I can breathe, I can breathe under water
Under water, under water, we could live under water
With your love, I can breathe, I can breathe under water
Under water, under water, we could live under water
With your love, we could breathe, we could breathe under water
Mika's song "Underwater" talks about how overwhelming it can be to leave the safe haven we call home and venture out into the unknown. The lyrics, "bursting through a blood red sky, a slow landslide, and the world we leave behind, it's enough to lose your head, disappear and not return again," showcases the fear and anxiety that one may feel when trying to navigate this unfamiliar terrain. The disorientation and confusion continue with the line "all I see just don't make sense."
Despite the chaos and confusion, there is hope in the form of love. The lines "you are the port of my call, you shot and leaving me raw, now I know you're amazing," speak to the comfort and security that love can provide. The love is so strong that it can make one feel as though they can survive anything, even living underwater. The lyrics, "all I need is the love you breathe, put your lips on me, and I can live underwater" drive this point home. The song is about finding that one person who makes everything seem possible, even the impossible.
Overall, "Underwater" by Mika is a song about the tumultuous journey of life and how love can make it all worth it. It's a reminder that even when things seem hopeless and chaotic, there is something to hold onto, and that's love.

@@yolanda3301 We all are heartbreakers, all of our thoughts are evil and all our good deeds are filthy rags.
Jeremiah 17:9 - The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?
Mark 7:21 - For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,
Romans 1:21 - Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
Isaiah 64:6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
We all were:
Psalms 51:5 - Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
Our Life Is Like Unto A Race
1 Corinthians Chapter 9
24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
Why are rich and famous depressed?
lets list the reasons;
they`re trans, faking life 100% daily
their master is lucifer, the father of lies.
they have no looks, needs to fake these,
they have no talent, needs to fake these.
they are famous only a moment.
they are rich only for moment.
To have the moment on stage, wicked and sick ritual must be performed.
They are masons in masonry.
Nothing`s real, only illusions.
They have it harder , to give their soul over to CHRIST and return back HEAVEN (Luke 18:25 KJV and Mark 10:25 KJV)
true Christians are born again = new creatures in CHRIST, able to no longer sin and able to understand GOD perfectly.
We are to make a conscious choosing between GOD = CHRIST and mammon = lucifer.
Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
we since birth live in the devils kingdom, this earth here, it shall be created anew, but not yet, still is the church time = still time for souls to get saved and be raptured up. until we come to repentance and born again, we remain living according to the devil.
devils expectations to us are:
lie/deceive kill destroy remain wicked sinner who praise death daily.
because devil is the father of lies:
John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
GOD `s expectations to us:
come to repentance
come out from BABYLON
born again
live holy
do the will of your heavenly father.
Matthew 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
1 Peter 1:16 - Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Bursting through a blood red sky
A slow landslide
and the world we leave behind
It's enough to lose your head,
disappear and not return again...
When I fall to my feet
Wearin' my heart on my sleeve
All I see just don't make sense
You are the port of my call
You shot and leavin' me raw
Now I know you're amazing
'Cause all I need
Is the love you breathe
put your lips on me
and I can live underwater,
underwater, underwater!
Underwater!
Flying through a bright blue sky
with a space boy high
from the world I leave behind
It's enough to lose my head
disappear and not be seen again
When I fall to my feet
Wearin' my heart on my sleeve
All I see just don't make sense
You are the port of my call
You shot and leavin' me raw
Now I know you're amazing
'Cause all I need
Is the love you breathe
Put your lips on me and
I can live underwater,
underwater, underwater!
Underwater!
Underwater underwater
I can live underwater
With your love I can breathe
I can breathe underwater
Underwater underwater
We could live underwater
With your love I can breathe
I can breathe underwater
Underwater underwater
We could live underwater
With your love we could breathe
We could breathe underwater
