Treading Water
I swam my way back up to the surface
Hanging onto hope only by my purpose
Constantly silencing the wave
That swells inside my head
Reminds me why I should be dead
Now the water's rising up
And I'm sinking fast
I can't believe the voice
That's inside of me
It always tries to convince me
I'm drowning
I try to take a breath
My lungs fill up with death
Treading water
It's pulling me under
And now you're gone
Following all the rest
A betrayal that feels
Just like a knife to the chest
But in the end everything will be okay
I take comfort in knowing
The tide will sweep me away
And I'm just learning
To live with myself
Without anybody else
It's just getting too damn hard
To wash away all these scars
I can't believe the voice
That's inside of me
It always tries to convince me
I'm drowning
I try to take a breath
My lungs fill up with death
Treading water
It's pulling me under
Treading water
It's pulling me under
Treading water
It's pulling me under
Each wave, I brace
To lose all progress I have made
With each wave, I brace
To lose all progress
I'm falling deep
Each wave, I've braced
To lose all progress I've made
I'm falling deep
I'm losing sleep
I can't keep going on this way
Hanging onto hope only by my purpose
Constantly silencing the wave
That swells inside my head
Reminds me why I should be dead
Now the water's rising up
And I'm sinking fast
I can't believe the voice
That's inside of me
It always tries to convince me
I'm drowning
I try to take a breath
My lungs fill up with death
Treading water
It's pulling me under
And now you're gone
Following all the rest
A betrayal that feels
Just like a knife to the chest
But in the end everything will be okay
I take comfort in knowing
The tide will sweep me away
And I'm just learning
To live with myself
Without anybody else
It's just getting too damn hard
To wash away all these scars
I can't believe the voice
That's inside of me
It always tries to convince me
I'm drowning
I try to take a breath
My lungs fill up with death
Treading water
It's pulling me under
Treading water
It's pulling me under
Treading water
It's pulling me under
Each wave, I brace
To lose all progress I have made
With each wave, I brace
To lose all progress
I'm falling deep
Each wave, I've braced
To lose all progress I've made
I'm falling deep
I'm losing sleep
I can't keep going on this way
