Riptide

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
