The Current

Goin’ down
Goin’ down
Down where my breath is the only sound
Goin’ down

Goin’ down
Goin’ down
Don’t look for me now, I’m not around
All day long I’m underground

I’ve been thinking about the future
I’ve been waiting for the day
Let the current carry me far away
Let the current carry me away

Current flows
I don’t know where it goes
I don’t care
I just get it there
Took this job ‘cuz I needed one
Now it’s seven years since I’ve seen the sun
All day long I’m underground

I’ve been thinking about the future
I’ve been waiting for the day
Let the current carry me far away
Let the current carry me away
And I’ve been thinking about the future
I hope someday I’ll get away
But the current keeps bringing me back around
Seems the only place for me is underground
So tomorrow when the sun comes up
I’ll be goin’ down
Goin’ down
Goin’ down
