  • Tell me that you'll never let me down (down)
    Down (down)
    'Cause you're my final breath before I drown (drown)
    Drown (drown)

    I'm drowning (I'm drowning)
    I'm drowning (I'm drowning)
    Lost in this world with these waves all around me
    Deep in the darkness
    Where it's heartless
    I don't know if I can make it
    I'll be honest and
    I'm fading (I'm fading)
    I'm fading (I'm fading)
    Trapped and I feel like
    It ain't no escaping
    Down to the bottom
    All these problems got me drinking
    Might drown in this bottle
    All this drama got me thinking

    If I had one call, would you answer it?
    Or would you take back all of your promises?
    'Cause I don't know who to turn to
    Or who to trust
    I don't know who to turn to
    Or who to trust
    So

    Tell me that you'll never let me down (down)
    Down (down)
    'Cause you're my final breath before I drown (drown)
    Drown (drown)

    You're my last resort
    When it's too late
    You're the only one
    Who takes my pain away (away)
    Away
    So tell me that you'll never let me down (down)
    Me down

    Come save me (come save me)
    Come save me (come save me)
    'Cause I've been in way over my head lately
    Shame got me sinking
    Going off the deep end
    Heart ache took my breath away
    Now I'm barely breathing and
    I'm hoping (I'm hoping)
    I'm hoping (I'm hoping)
    'Cause this the only thing that keeps me sober
    I feel like I'm losing it
    Like "What am I doing here?"
    I need you to bail me out
    I need you to pull me in

    If I had one call, would you answer it?
    Or would you take back all of your promises?
    'Cause I don't know who to turn to
    Or who to trust
    I don't know who to turn to
    Or who to trust (so)

    So tell me that you'll never let me down (whoa, oh)
    Down (oh)
    'Cause you're my final breath before I drown (oh, I don't wanna drown)
    Drown (yeah)

    You're my last resort
    When it's too late
    You're the only one
    Who takes my pain away
    Away (so)
    So tell me that you'll never let me down (oh)
