below sea level

Ben Harper

I fear that everything is happening in this world
Some days it brings me to my knees
You said I dropped in on the wrong planet
As if it were up to me
When I'm down in
My heart pounding
Below sea level
Below sea level

We belong to us
Glitter covers the dust
My best efforts met with disdain
Surrender by another name
A deep breath
Is all that's left
Below sea level
Below sea level

Read in the papers
Watch on the news
Planet's hanging on
By the string of its shoes
You sing high
I'll sing low
Down where daylight dare not go
Below sea level
Below sea level
Below sea level
Below sea level
