Lyrics
[Verse 1]
This life feels like a battle
One that I can't win
It's like I'm swimming against the current
Like I'm running against the wind
It's like I'm going overboard
With an anchor 'round my waist
I lie awake at night with tears in my eyes
My heart beating out of my chest
There's no light at the end of this tunnel I'm in
I'm calling for an S.O.S.
[Chorus]
Somebody help me, I'm
Drowning
I can't tread much longer, I'm
Fighting
To keep my head above the water
So throw me a line, show me a sign
Everything'll be alright
'Cause I feel like I'm
Drowning
Somebody help me out
[Verse 2]
I try to see the world's true colors
But they're all just shades of gray
And it's only getting duller
Every passing day
And the more I fake a smile
The more I'm bound to break
I've never felt so alone in a crowd full of folks
I'm trying just to hide the pain
It's just a matter of time till I can't see the light
And I hit rock bottom again
[Chorus]
Somebody help me, I'm
Drowning
I can't tread much longer, I'm
Fighting
To keep my head above the water
So throw me a line, show me a sign
Everything'll be alright
'Cause I feel like I'm
Drowning
Somebody help me out
[Bridge]
But it goes to show
There ain't always a boat
To lend a helping hand
But if I can find just one way to stay afloat
I'll find my way back to shore again
[Chorus]
Somebody help me, I'm
Drowning
I can't tread much longer, I'm
Fighting
To keep my head above the water
So throw me a line, show me a sign
Everything'll be alright
'Cause I feel like I'm
Drowning
[Outro]
Oh, Lord, I'm drowning
Lord, I'm drowning
Somebody help me out
