[Verse 1: Jonah Marais]
Used to be scared of the ocean
'Cause I didn't know how to swim
I took one sip of your potion
Now I'm just divin' right in

[Pre-Chorus: Daniel Seavey]
I heard your siren's call
It was beautiful
I am drowning
But, please don't save me

[Chorus: Zach Herron & Jack Avery]
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me
I can't breathe but I'm living
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me
I can't breathe but I'm living

[Post-Chorus: Daniel Seavey]
I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh

[Verse 2: Corbyn Besson]
Treasure chest filled with your diamonds
I don't mind staying down here
Thought by now I would be dyin'
But your love gives me all my air

[Pre-Chorus: Daniel Seavey]
I heard your siren's call
It was beautiful
I am drowning
But, please don't save me

[Chorus: Zach Herron & Jack Avery]
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me
I can't breathe but I'm living
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me
I can't breathe but I'm living

[Post-Chorus: Daniel Seavey]
I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
I'm in too deep

[Interlude: Daniel Seavey]
I heard your siren's call
It was beautiful

[Bridge: Zach Herron]
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me
I can't breathe but I'm living

[Chorus: Zach Herron & Jack Avery]
I'm in too deep
I never thought that you could be
My underwater symphony
I can't breathe but I'm living
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me
I can't breathe but I'm living

[Post-Chorus: Daniel Seavey]
I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh
I'm in too deep

Why Don’t We is a boy band consisting of Daniel Seavey, Zach Herron, Corbyn Besson, Jonah Marais and Jack Avery. The members individually gained recognition over social media by posting covers and doing live streams. Seavey was also a contestant on season 14 of the American TV show American Idol. The group started activities on September 27, 2016, with the release of their two singles “Taking You” and “Nobody Gotta Know” and EP Only The Beginning, shortly thereafter.

The band gained a lot of recognition from their 2017 single “Something Different”. They went on to release four EPs in that year, notably gaining recognition for their collaboration with YouTuber Logan Paul, who also directed several of their music videos at this time.

Their first release in 2018, the Ed Sheeran-written “Trust Fund Baby,” ranked #2 on the American iTunes Chart, and was the band’s highest achievement to that date. They released three singles in June, July and August of that year preceding their first full length album on August 31, 2018. “Talk”, the second pre-release, peaked at #1 on the American iTunes Chart, surpassing their personal record just five months later.
