(Ah-ah) Woke up comin’ out for air
Cold sweat on my skin, I was unprepared
Deep down, gettin’ lost again
But it’s me and myself that I’m up against
(Ah-ah) Dark days that I’ve overcome
Why does this time feel like it’s only just begun?
Downtown in the undertow
Chasin’ highs when I’m feelin’ low
(Mm) Gotta let go, but I don’t know how to let go
(Mm) How am I supposed to do this?
With my head underwater
I can’t take it much longer
Head underwater
I’m at war with the monster
I’m strugglin’ to catch my breath
Get it off my chest, but if it don’t kill me, then
I get stronger
Oh, with my head underwater (Head underwater, underwater)
(Ah-ah) Night comes and it’s hard to sleep
Like my mind is a million miles apart from me
Can’t count on the chemicals
They don’t work when I made them the antidote
(Ah-ah) Wild thoughts that I try to tame
Keep me numb how they run like the blood inside my veins
Uptown, I can see the light
But it’s dark on the other side
(Mm) Gotta let go, but I don’t know how to let go
(Mm) How am I supposed to do this?
With my head underwater
I can’t take it much longer
Head underwater
I’m at war with the monster
I’m strugglin’ to catch my breath
Get it off my chest, but if it don’t kill me, then
I get stronger
Oh, with my head underwater (Head underwater, underwater)
Oh, with my head underwater (Head underwater, underwater)
[Bridge]
Holdin’ on to hope I can make it out
Prayin’ that my lungs don’t fail me now
Holdin’ on to hope I can make it out
Prayin’ that my lungs don’t fail me now
Holdin’ on to hope I can make it out
Prayin’ that my lungs don’t fail me now
Holdin’ on to hope I can make it out
How am I supposed to do this?
With my head underwater
I can’t take it much longer
Head underwater
I’m at war with the monster
I’m strugglin’ to catch my breath
Get it off my chest, but if it don’t kill me, then
I get stronger
Oh, with my head underwater (Head underwater, underwater)
