Did you ever picture your life like this 
No shooting star to grant your wish 
Are you everything you hoped you'd be 
Or caught somewhere in between 
You dropped your miracle down a wishing well 
And pray for luck to cast its spell 
To bring you closer to your dreams 
That always seem just out of reach 

You pray to god, don't know when 
But you feel the current pull you in 
Try to keep your head above water 
Cause it's never been harder 
Even when it feels hopeless 
You're gonna get through this 
Head above water, gotta fight from going under 
Even when it feels useless to wish 
You're gonna get through this 

Have you ever felt like giving in 
Tried for hours but just can't win 
Tell yourself you're not good enough 
The struggle alone is just too much 
No one's there to hear you scream 
You gasp for air but cannot breathe 
Did you ever think you'd see the day 
When you'd watch your life get washed away 

You pray to god, don't know when 
But you feel the current pull you in 
Try to keep your head above water 
Cause it's never been harder 
Even when it feels hopeless 
You're gonna get through this 
Head above water, gotta fight from going under 
Even when it feels useless to wish 
You're gonna get through this 

Did it ever hurt so bad 
That the thought of feeling lost would never end 
Well you will think again 

Try to keep your head above water 
Cause it's never been harder 
When it feels hopeless 
You're gonna get through this 
Head above water, gotta fight from going under 
Even when it feels useless to wish 
You're gonna get through this
