Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I finally took your advice
And waded into the ocean
My heart skipped a beat
As my body slipped under the waves
I floated between the mountains
Scraped by a low-slung sky
Drifting and weightless
The salt water stinging my eyes
[PreChorus]
And I wonder what you wanted me to see
[Chorus]
All my life, I've been holding on too tight
Can't slip up, darling
Or things are never gonna turn out right
But in the tide, there was a power that I couldn't fight
And I still survived
I still survived
[Verse 2]
I finally took your advice
And left all the windows open
Turned out the lights
And invited the storm to come in
Thunder and dust in the doorway
Howling electric sky
And me on the floor
With my eyes all wild and wide
[PreChorus]
And I wonder what you wanted me to see
[Chorus]
All my life, I've been holding on too tight
Can't slip up, darling
Or things are never gonna turn out right
But in the night, there was a power that I couldn't fight
And I still survived
I still survived
I still survived
I still survived
