Love, lay me down slay me with whispers 
Reassure me that it's alright 
I, I hit the deck, 
I hit rock bottom 
But you saw me, then you caught me 
Shining like a ray of hope swift like a turning sea 
Angel [bad word] me 
Cradling my head in your hands 
I looked up at the sunand the fog cleared, 
I saw you 

And I want you and that's so terrifying 
And I want you to help put out the fire 
Cause I am an island, you are the ocean 
And all of my sadness taken by the sea 

Fall, I took a fall 
I took it easy 
On the surface 
I was perfect 
But down, way down below 
I started believing 
I deserved it was I worthless 
Sinking like a rescue boat 
Washing right over me 
Vessel is [bad word] 
Waving both my hands in the air 
Then the blindness of love 
Then your arms all around me 

And I want you and that's so terrifying 
And I want you to help put out the fire 
Cause I am an island, you are the ocean 
And all of my sadness taken by the sea 

And I want so much to believe 
That I won't disappear in the water 
That I won't always be swimming against the tide 

And I want you and that's so terrifying 
And I want you to help put out the fire 
Cause I am an island and you are the ocean 
And all of my sadness taken by the sea, the sea 
I am an island, 
You are the ocean 
All of my sadness taken by the sea
