| So I turned and faced the wave
|
| It kept on calling out my name
|
| You know the echoes tried to throw me off
|
| but the shadows helped my aim
|
| So I kept on treading water
|
| Until I got somewhere to see
|
| It was another wave standing 10 feet tall
|
| And it towered over me
|
| These tidal waves keep coming
|
| They are washing over me
|
| And They’re trying to drag me down
|
| Somewhere that I can’t breathe
|
| And it’s breaking down from fantasy
|
| And it’s not looking good for you and me
|
| Could you wake me up when it’s over please
|
| Cause I’m not doing this alone
|
| It was never my intention
|
| To be the captain of the ship
|
| I just built the boat to stay afloat and save some friends with it
|
| We’re here with miss direction
|
| and she’s throwing us off course
|
| What’s the use of writing words to save a soul if they are forced
|
| These tidal waves keep coming
|
| They are washing over me
|
| And They’re trying to drag me down
|
| Somewhere that I can’t breathe
|
| And it’s breaking down from fantasy
|
| And it’s not looking good for you and me
|
| Could you wake me up when it’s over please
|
| Cause I’m not doing this alone
|
| I can feel it as I lose my grip
|
| Cause my head says I can’t handle it
|
| But I’ll stay afloat if I don’t forget
|
| That I’m not in this alone
|
| I’ll sink if I ever forget
|
| I’ll sink if I ever forget
|
| I’ll sink if I ever forget
|
| I’ll sink if I ever forget
|
| And it’s breaking down from fantasy
|
| And it’s not looking good for you and me
|
| Could you wake me up when it’s over please
|
| Cause I’m not doing this alone
|
| I can feel it as I lose my grip
|
| Cause my head says I can’t handle it
|
| But I’ll stay afloat if I don’t forget
|
| That I’m not in this alone
|
| But I’ll stay afloat if I don’t forget
|
| That I’m not in this alone |
