"HEAD ABOVE WATER" lyrics

Keep your head above the water
But I held you down instead
Tried to blame it on the waves
But I was lying to myself

Got so far, never thought we'd lose it
Said it wouldn't hurt, but I put you through it
Night after night, again and again
Now I look back and it all seems stupid
One small crack will make the world stop moving
We fought the tides, again and again

Who knew it would die today
You'd get up and fly away
But I hope, I hope you know, you know
That I tried to

Keep your head above the water
But I held you down instead
Tried to blame it on the waves
But I was lying to myself
Yeah, my head's been underwater
Can't even help myself
Tried to blame it on the waves
For my mistakes
But that don't help me keep my head above water

Ooh
Water
Ooh
Water
Ooh

Took my breath on a cold September
It's been so long, but I still remember
I'm lying awake, again and again
Wish I could go back to those days
We used to drive up to that place

But I hope, I hope you know, you know
That I tried to

Keep your head above the water
But I held you down instead
Tried to blame it on the waves
But I was lying to myself
Yeah, my head's been underwater
Can't even help myself
Tried to blame it on the waves
For my mistakes
But that don't help me keep my head above water

Ooh
Water
Ooh
Water
Ooh
But that don't help me keep my head above water

Ooh
Water
Ooh
Water
Ooh
But that don't help me keep my head above water

Keep your head above the water
But I held you down instead
Tried to blame it on the waves
But I was lying to myself
