Every time I get my head above the waves
Something pulls me under again
I keep patching up the cracks I made
But the flood still gets in

I’m so tired of saying “I’m okay”
Like it doesn’t hurt this bad
Carrying the weight like I can take
Another collapse, another relapse

And everybody’s fighting something too
So who am I supposed to run to?
No one’s got the strength to spare
We’re all barely breathing air

I keep chasing sunlight through the rain
But hope keeps slipping through my veins
I swear I’m trying not to break
But the pressure never fades

I’m drowning in the deep end
Swimming through a storm again
Every time the sky turns gold
The lightning hits, I lose control

Tell me when the waves stop crashing
When this chaos quits attacking
I keep fighting just to feel alive
But some nights it feels like life
Was rigged for me to lose

I’m exhausted from pretending
That I’m stronger than I feel
All these walls are slowly bending
Under everything that’s real

I still believe there’s something more
Past all these locked and broken doors
But every step I claw toward light
Feels like two steps back each night

And I hate how optimism sounds
Like a lie inside my mouth
When all I want is one clear sign
That better days still exist somewhere

I keep reaching through the dark
Trying to restart my heart
But every spark burns out too fast
How long can this last?

I’m drowning in the deep end
Swimming through a storm again
Every time the sky turns gold
The lightning hits, I lose control

Tell me when the waves stop crashing
When this chaos quits attacking
I keep fighting just to feel alive
But some nights it feels like life
Was rigged for me to lose

Oh, I’m not broken
I’m just worn thin
Maybe surviving every storm
Is where the strength begins

I know the sun still exists
Even if I can’t see it yet
So I’ll keep moving through the wreckage
Even drowning hasn’t killed me yet

I’m drowning in the deep end
But I’m not giving in again
Even when the sky goes black
I’ll keep clawing my way back

One day these waves will break around me
One day the light will finally find me
And all this pain I carried through
Won’t be the thing that made me lose

The storm can scream my name tonight

No, I won't give up this fight
