Underwater

When I was young

I always got the job done

My mama said I'm on my own now

When I need help

I tell myself I got this

But it's too much to carry on alone

If you ask, you shall receive

Not easy as it seems 'specially for me

If only I could kiss the down goodbye

Wouldn't it be nice

To call a friend

To help me bear the low

I've carried on my own

Someone to hold my hand

Lead me through the storm

Save me when I'm underwater

I've been let down

Soaking in dissapointments

The ones I thought I'd count on let me drown

I've given up

I couldn't find a lifeline

No trace of light to guide me back to shore

But oh how life can be

The ones I never dreamed came to rescue me

It showed me that grace and empathy are given and received

So if you just

Call a friend

To help you bear the low

You've carried on my own

Someone to hold your hand

Lead you through the storm

Save me when you're underwater

So if you find a friend

To help you bear the low

You've carried on my own

Then you should hold their hand

Lead them through the storm

Save them when they're underwater
