Head Above the Water
Just my luck
I get my footing on some barely stable ground
Life comes around and kicks my face
Breaks my legs just to be sure
That's the story of my life
And the title of my memoir
No one leaves this world unscathed
We are meant to crash and burn
That's what life is all about
We learn to pick ourselves back up
No ones knows what they are doing
We all wing it as we go
Living life with mental illness
With your head as the villain
Some days you win
But most times lose
Every day is a battle
Keeping my head above the water
As my feet fail to find the bottom
No one leaves this world unscathed
We are meant to crash and burn
That's what life is all about
We learn to pick ourselves back up
No ones knows what they are doing
We all wing it as we go
Not giving up
Not giving in
Bruised and broken
I'm still here
Not giving up
Not giving in
Until the day my heart shuts down
Not giving up
Not giving in
I won't give you the satisfaction
I burned the white flag
No one leaves this world unscathed
We are meant to crash and burn
That's what life is all about
We learn to pick ourselves back up
No ones knows what they are doing
We all wing it as we go
No one knows what they are doing
We all wing it as we go
We all wing it as we go
I get my footing on some barely stable ground
Life comes around and kicks my face
Breaks my legs just to be sure
That's the story of my life
And the title of my memoir
No one leaves this world unscathed
We are meant to crash and burn
That's what life is all about
We learn to pick ourselves back up
No ones knows what they are doing
We all wing it as we go
Living life with mental illness
With your head as the villain
Some days you win
But most times lose
Every day is a battle
Keeping my head above the water
As my feet fail to find the bottom
No one leaves this world unscathed
We are meant to crash and burn
That's what life is all about
We learn to pick ourselves back up
No ones knows what they are doing
We all wing it as we go
Not giving up
Not giving in
Bruised and broken
I'm still here
Not giving up
Not giving in
Until the day my heart shuts down
Not giving up
Not giving in
I won't give you the satisfaction
I burned the white flag
No one leaves this world unscathed
We are meant to crash and burn
That's what life is all about
We learn to pick ourselves back up
No ones knows what they are doing
We all wing it as we go
No one knows what they are doing
We all wing it as we go
We all wing it as we go
