This song was the first track recorded on the first day of recording.
lyrics
I fell in love with the size of the ocean
I fell in love with its beady eyes
Always under so much pressure
Its above my mind
Like a fetus draining to be
Draining my everything
Black waves just move along
Black waves just move along
Below those waves tonight!
Jump to be the anchor now, jump to be the anchor now!
I fell in love with the shape of the sun
I fell in love with what can’t come undone
that’s what I need, stability
something to keep on my knees
whats the point or the meaning to live?
No church what about my sins?
Its all a compendium
Pieces off a puzzle stuck with bubble gum
Below those waves tonight!
Jump to be the anchor now, jump to be the anchor now!
See the sky shine through the waves
Water has filled my lungs
The soaking clouds have drown the sun
The future is empty without someone
Oxygen has lost its fun

The Shivas deliver a set of righteous three-chord wonders with a mean streak that will always be to the tastes of a certain doomy subset of ‘60s rock fans. Bandcamp Album of the Day Oct 29, 2019
