Assuming We Survive – Open Water lyrics

[Intro]
I'm always defending you
I'm always defending you

[Verse 1]
I guess I thought that this would be easy
I fooled myself completely into thinking
I had no choice, no voice, and no control
And all I've lost I've done it on my own

[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody rescue me from deep inside my head
Am I the one worth saving?
Save me!

[Chorus]
I break through the waves and find myself in open water
I break through the waves and find myself in ocean blue
(I'm always defending you)

[Verse 2]
I never thought that I would be leading this lonely life
I'm hiding all my feelings
Inside a void, a hole in my soul
I dwell in the pit so that you'll never know

[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody rescue me from deep inside my head
Am I the one worth saving?
Save me!

[Chorus]
I break through the waves and find myself in open water
I break through the waves and find myself in ocean blue
And I fight the pain sometimes I wish I didn't bother
'Cause it's all the same I find myself defending you
(I'm always defending you)
(I'm always defending you)

[Breakdown]
I don't know why I even try
The current pulls me and drowns me alive
I don't know why I even try
I'm sinking faster the more that I fight

[Pre-Chorus]
Somebody rescue me from deep inside my head
Am I the one worth saving?
Save me!

[Chorus]
I break through the waves and find myself in open water
I break through the waves and find myself in ocean blue
And I fight the pain sometimes I wish I didn't bother
'Cause it's all the same I find myself defending you
(I'm always defending you)
(I'm always defending you)
