Currents Lyrics

But they still pull me down, down, down
I can see the shore within my grasp, but it's only a matter of time
Before I sink or swim, as the tides keep tearing at my limbs
My body's an anchor that's slowly sinking down
This abyss is all I see for miles and miles
These currents surround me and grab me by the neck they won't let go
Please set me free from the tide
If I become part of the machine
That is slowly killing me
I will make my bed below where no one will hear me
Tell me this isn't it, tell me I still have a chance to make it out
These ocean waves keep crashing over me again
Will I be saved, or will I make my way to my ocean grave
There's a piece of me still stuck here at the bottom of the sea
But if I keep my eyes to the water,
This ocean's going to be the death of me
This ocean will swallow me whole

These ocean waves keep crashing over me again
Will I be saved, or will I make my way to my ocean grave
But if I can keep my head above the water, I might make it out
But They still pull me down, down, down

But they still pull me down, down, down
I can see the shore within my grasp, but it's only a matter of time
Before I sink or swim, as the tides keep tearing at my limbs
My body's an anchor that's slowly sinking down
This abyss is all I see for miles and miles
These currents surround me and grab me by the neck they won't let go
Please set me free from the tide
If I become part of the machine
That is slowly killing me
I will make my bed below where no one will hear me
Tell me this isn't it, tell me I still have a chance to make it out
These ocean waves keep crashing over me again
Will I be saved, or will I make my way to my ocean grave
There's a piece of me still stuck here at the bottom of the sea
But if I keep my eyes to the water, 
This ocean's going to be the death of me
This ocean will swallow me whole

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
