You hold your every breath 
but life is for the living, in the water 
you feel that you [bad word] but where are you to hide in the water.

Against the tide we [bad word] with the skin we’re in, the skin we’re in 
against the tide we [bad word] 
to keep our heads above the deep 
our hearts above the lie. 

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.

Against the tide we [bad word] with the skin we’re in, the skin we’re in 
against the tide we [bad word] 
to keep our heads above the deep 
our hearts above the lie.

Who we are today 
could never make amends for what we’ve one 
tainted blood 
his eyes are full of love 
forgive them – release them.

Against the tide we [bad word] with the skin we’re in, the skin we’re in 
against the tide we [bad word] 
to keep our heads above the deep 
our hearts above the lie.
