i'm so stubborn, it's how i got here 
so alone, feels like forever 
wanna swim away 
and breath the open air 
I feel so afraid 
then I hear you say 

hang on when the water is rising 
hang on when the waves are crashing 
hang on just don't ever let go 

I'm so hungry, how can I stay here 
I'm starving for what I hold so dear 
like a huricane 
takes everything 
from me, wake me from this dream 

hang on when the water is rising 
hang on when the waves are crashing 
hang on just don't ever let go 
hang on when you are barely breathing 
hang on when your hearts still beating 
hang on just don't ever let go 

three days, thirty years 
so hopeless doesn't matter 
don't say it's too late 
if you blink your eyes 
the sun is rising 
the sun is rising 

hang on when the water is rising 
hang on when the waves are crashing 
hang on just don't ever let go 
hang on when you are barely breathing 
hang on when your hearts still beating 
hang on just don't ever let go
