i couldve lied

the truth a needle in your eye

the wound a band-aid wont heal

but i persist

and try to tell it

like it is

whats the point if were not real?



[Chorus]

riptide sweeps me out to drown

flailing arms and aching chest the more

i struggle,the more it wears me down

how long can i hold my breath?



another test

you used to say i was the best so

proud to walk by my side

now you see everything thats wrong with me

can you accept it

will you try?



[Chorus]



rolling

choking

still im kicking

driftig farther out to sea

i wont let go of

my dim hopes somehow

youll make it out to me
