Coming up for Air
The Darcys Lyrics

Lay yourself out like a constellation across the floor.
Spread out like a constellation across the ground.

Arch your back, let your imagination really take hold.
Curve your back and allow your imagination to fly.

Hold your breath, I feel the inhalation fill up your lungs,
Take a deep breath and feel the air filling you up inside.

And close your eyes and let the trepidation abandon your bones,
Shut your eyes and let go of all your fear and worries.

And let yourself go.
Relax and surrender to the moment.

And I'm coming, I'm coming up for air,
I'm rising up, needing to breathe again.

Oh I'm coming up, stop pulling me under,
Urgently asking to be freed from being dragged down.

Stop pulling me under.
Don't keep holding me down.

Eight hundred feet deep you locked yourself, oh, under a loch.
You have trapped yourself 800 feet below, in a lake.

Eight hundred feet deep you locked yourself, oh, oh set the weights off and let yourself go.
Release the weights, let go and rise to the surface.

And the night dares us to,
Challenging us, the darkness beckons.

To dive back into the night.
To plunge back into the embracing darkness.

The night dares us to,
Again, the night challenges us.

Dive back into,
Imperative to submerge again,

Night dares us to
Once more the darkness goads us.

Dive back into the night,
Re-enter the evening, become part of it.

I'm coming up for air,
Rising up, gasping for breath.

Oh I'm coming up, stop pulling me under,
I'm fighting to break free, so I can breathe again.

Stop pulling me under.
Don't keep holding me down.

I'm coming up for air,
Gasping for breath as I surface.

Oh I'm coming up, stop pulling me under,
I'm struggling to get free, fighting to breathe.

Stop, stop it.
Stop hindering me, let me breathe.

I'm coming up for air,
Struggling to break free, gasping for breath.

Oh I'm coming up, stop, stop, stop, stop it.
Demanding my release, begging to be allowed to breathe again.
