I'm so stubborn, it's how I got here
 So alone, feels like forever
 Wanna swim away and breath the open air
 But 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?
 Starving for what I hold so dear
 Like a hurricane it 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 heart's 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, oh

 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're barely breathing
 Hang on when your heart's still beating
 Hang on, just don't ever let go
