[Intro]
I'm hanging on for dear life
I'm just waiting for the wave to strike
I'm hanging on for dear life
I'm just waiting for the wave to strike

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1]
I'm trying to keep my head
Above the water
As I feel fate's hand
Trying to pull me under

[Pre-Chorus 1]
This time, I won't survive

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm hanging on for dear life
I'm just waiting for the wave to strike

[Chorus]
Please forgive me for these lies...
I'm not forsaken
I can't outrun this tide...
That is breaking inside
[Verse 2]
I'm swimming without my soul
Flowing with the undertow
I'm caught in a riptide
Where pain and passion collide

[Pre-Chorus 1]
This time, I won't survive

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm hanging on for dear life
I'm just waiting for the wave to strike

[Chorus]
Please forgive me for these lies...
I'm not forsaken
I can't outrun this tide...
That is breaking inside

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Please forgive me for these lies...
I'm not forsaken
I can't outrun this tide...
That is breaking inside
