[Verse 1] You hold your every breath But life is for the living, in the water You feel that you should run But where are you to hide In the water
[Chorus] Against the tide we struggle With the skin we're in With the skin we're in Against the tide we struggle To keep our heads above the deep And our hearts above the lie (above the lie)
[Verse 2] You vow your life and blood But this is not our home In the water Our hope here's never found Just try and keep your way In the water
[Chorus] Against the tide we struggle With the skin we're in With the skin we're in Against the tide we struggle To keep our heads above the deep And our hearts above the lie (above the lie)
[Verse 2] With who we are today Could never make amends for what we've done Tainted blood His eyes, his eyes are full of love Forgive them Release them
[Chorus] Against the tide we struggle With the skin we're in With the skin we're in Against the tide we struggle To keep our heads above the deep And our hearts above the lie (above the lie)
