I saw the waves
All storm the beach
And you were there
With your arms outreached
Saying take me away to a better place, oh

Cause I built what I could
And there's nothing left
And I can't find the air
That I need for a breath
If these castles all fold
And collapse to my chest
I'm not sure I'll get back up

So tonight I'll try to fight
The waves in all our lives
I'm finding what I don't know
Could fill up every black hole
And tonight if nothing's left
And we fall to our last breath
Keep your head above the water
We'll take it on together
If that's tonight

I heard the crowds all rush and greet
Another time and another me
Swearing this was the way that it had to be
Oh

Cause the rain's gonna fall
'Til it's all soaked clean
And the wind's gonna blow
'Til it comforts me
And we all have to fall just to stand
So it seems this is how we get back up

So tonight I'll try to fight
The waves in all our lives
While I'm finding what I don't know
Could fill up every black hole
And tonight if nothing's left
And we fall to our last breath
Keep your head above the water
We'll take it on together
If that's tonight
If that's tonight

Cause I built what I could
And there's nothing left
And I can't find the air
That I need for a breath
If these castles all fall
And collapse to my chest
I'm not sure I'll get back up

If that's tonight
If that's tonight
If that's tonight
Oh, if that's tonight
