You're out on the ocean 
And you get pulled down 
Freefall to the bottom 
Like when you're drowning 
Or falling asleep 

You get turned around 
And when you think you're 
Swimming to the surface 
You're swimming straight down. 
Down to the bottom. 
All the way to the bottom. 

Secret codes and cryptograms 
I'm lost in your words 
I'm swimming. 

We're going down to the bottom 
All the way to the bottom 
Rapture of the deep. 

I got your letter. 
I couldn't read it. 
It was a cryptogram. 
Did it sasay take me with you 
Or take me as I am? 

We're going down to the bottom 
All the way to the bottom. 
We get turned around. 

There is another world 
Spinning inside of this one. 
I remember where I came from 
There were tropical breezes 
And a wide open sea 
I remember my childhood 
I remember being free. 

We're going down to the bottom 
All the way to the bottom 
We get turned around 

There is another world 
Inside of this one. 
Rapture of the deep. 

We're going down to the bottom 
There is another world 
Spinning inside of this one.
