lyrics

I thought if I was ever all alone and lost at sea
You would be the first one to come looking for me
I was sure you'd understand, you always said you cared
I never thought you'd look away and just ignore my flare

You think I'm waving but I'm drowning over here
You push me under whenever you are near
Walk away now, just turn and walk away
Let me breathe, let me live another day

Tears are streaming down my face, but when you look at me
The water that's surrounding me is all you care to see
I couldn't do this on my own, that's why I yelled your name
To me it's about life or death, to you it's just a game

You think I'm waving but I'm drowning over here
You push me under whenever you are near
Walk away now, just turn and walk away
Let me breathe, let me live another day

The ocean is so cold and deep, your eyes they are so blue
I'm more afraid of drowning than I am of losing you
The tide pulls me further out, I'm running out of time
I'm hoping that as soon as you are gone I will be fine

You think I'm waving but I'm drowning over here
You push me under whenever you are near
Walk away now, just turn and walk away
Let me breathe, let me live another day

Oh, how easy it must be
To stand safely at the shore
And to yell at those lost at sea
That we can't have it all

You think I'm waving but I'm drowning over here
You push me under whenever you are near
Walk away now, just turn and walk away
Let me breathe, let me live another day
