Coming Up for Air (2011 Edit)

Once again, I dived in, thought I was escaping

Leaving all I've ever had behind for peace of mind

Held my breath for ages, hid myself in cages

Never thought the sea could be this dark, it's filled my heart

Now I'm coming up for air

'Cause the truth is not down there

I believe that someone cares

Enough to light a flare

Now I'm coming up for air

Once again I screwed up, didn't grasp when to stop

Went too deep, too soon, but now I know where to go

Now I'm coming up for air

'Cause the truth is not down there

I believe that someone cares

Enough to light a flare

Now I'm coming up for air

I see ships keep passing by

If I surface will they try

To come back for me

Eventually, will I be home and dry

Now I'm coming up for air

'Cause the truth is not down there

I believe that someone cares

Enough to light a flare

Now I'm coming up for air
