I called in sick to the bathtub today
Somebody pulled the plug on me
So I've gathered up my skirts halfway to the sink

Made a bubble bath until (?)

You held me like a tundra

Shifting blocks of ice, pulling asunder
Come a little closer, you're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out


I used to watch the weather channel twice a week
Made vigilant calculations of the water levels rising

But since my basin emptied I can't bear to look at it
Disaster is as disaster does, and it doesn't like forecasting


Oh you held me like a tundra
Shifting blocks of ice, pulling asunder
Come a little closer, you're in for a long haul

Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out

You didn't have to tell me or even say her name

The evidence was plainly written by the expression on your face
It ain't intuition, it ain't ESP
I could even tell while you were making love to me


Oh you held me like a tundra
Drifting blocks of ice, pulling asunder

Come a little closer, you're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out


The water gets deeper the further we drift out
And it's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, 'cause we knew it all along


Baby, you held me like a tundra
Pulling us sideways, dragging me under

Come a little closer, you're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out
The water gets deeper the further we drift out

The water gets deeper, and soon enough we'll drown
