High Water Lyrics by Sleep Token

This Place Will Become Your Tomb

2021

[Verse 1]
For the time being
I will still avoid my own questions
And we both bury that history deep
But you know I can hold my breath forever
For the time being
You are still a perfect reminder of what
All of these scars on my arms are for
If I can hold myself together

[Chorus]
And I choke myself on sacred vapour
Waiting on some holy favour
Basking in the solace of regret
And it seems my hell is your high water
Wash me clean again before I pull myself beneath the waves

[Verse 2]
When thе mouth of infinity
Buries its teeth in me
I'll smile through thе agony for you
And I know you still bear the weight of your own existence
And you'll never bear the weight of two

[Chorus]
And I choke myself on sacred vapour
Waiting on some holy favour
Basking in the solace of regret
And it seems my hell is your high water
Wash me clean again before I pull myself beneath the waves

[Verse 3]
For the time being
I will admit my defeat again
I will accept that I can't pretend
We will ever be together

[Breakdown]
I can't hold myself together

[Instrumental Outro]
