Lyrics:
Head above water
For the first time
For the first time
Or is it the last time?

I've been dying
I'm gasping for air
It just seems unfair
Or maybe it's fair?

Blood in the water
Save me, why bother?

Throw me an anchor
And save yourself
Awash in the breakers
And this is hell

Head underwater
For the first time
For the first time
This isn't the last time

I'd be lying
To say "I don’t care"
Clearly I care
The way out’s right there

Tide’s coming in
Sharks are circling
And I reach out my hand
The current drags me out
Confirming all my doubts
And I'm fading away
