Against these tides of war
I swim until I can't swim anymore
Just like I did the year before
Against oceans of class
I swim until my lungs finally collapse
And I'm at peace with my past[Chorus:]
So drag me down to the ocean floor
Cause I don't want to fight no more
Against these tides pulling from all sides
I'm never going back to shoreThis is my sinking ship
And as captain I must finally give in
Because I always knew
I always knew you'd winIs it wrong to not want to be where you belong
Cause it takes way too long[Chorus]So drag me down to the ocean floor
Cause I don't want to fight no more
Against these tides pulling from all sides
I'm never going back to shore
Just let me sing myself to sleepI made my mistakes and now it's time
To make my great escape
Because it takes way too long[Chorus]So drag me down to the ocean floor
Cause I don't want to fight no more
Against these tides pulling from all sides
I'm never going back to shore
Just let me sing myself to sleep
