  • Head underwater
    Don't think I have the strength tonight
    They push me any further
    I will find the words to fight

    'Cause what they say about me
    Cuts deeper than the sharpest knife
    And in my head a replay
    I'm looking at that red light

    I'll drown in the water
    If I listen to the sound
    Of cruel laughter
    I let the stones fall to the ground
    They don't know a thing about me
    And still the wolves are crying out

    And I hear you say, "I'll take you away"

    So will you stand for something
    And give them back the ammunition
    Or will you let them tell you who you are
    My love is deeper than the stars
    And you are bigger than the scars that you feel at night
    When you're holding your pillow tight
    And you're wishing someone would call you Home

    It's you and I alone
    It's you and I alone
    You and I alone
    It's you and I alone
    You and I alone

    Head underwater
    Don't think I have the strength tonight Writer/s: JAMES CULPEPPER, JARED CHRISTOPHER HARTMANN, KIRKPATRICK SEALS, KRISTEN LYNN MAY, SAMEER BHATTACHARYA
