Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Standing by yourself
High on the hills above the ocean
This is where you'd come to walk with your friends
Strange how it leaves you with no emotion
[Verse 2]
You can't fight the undertow
Not when you're all alone
You can't fight the undertow
How long till you let go?
[Verse 3]
Taking one step back
Trying to pull yourself together
No matter what you say
Nothing you do
Can hold back the forces on you forever
[Verse 4]
You can't fight the undertow
Not when you're all alone
You can't fight the undertow
How long till you let go?
[Verse 5]
You can't fight the undertow
Not when you're all alone
You can't fight the undertow
How long till you let go?
How long till you let go?
