lyrics
Whats the point in being here, if all we ever get is second chances?
Whats the point in waking up, then lying to your face that you can handle this?
And why’d you step through all this shit,
And then back down cos that’s what they think you should do?
And why’d you go and die again, then realise there was really just no, point to this.
Cos we’re wading, oh,
Wading under water, yeah.
And we’re wading, oh,
Wading under water, yeah.
And everytime you see that same old path you used to walk, you still remember.
The reasons that you cant wake up, then step out of the line we’ve all been silenced to.
They say we’re all the same, back down, but that’s just what you already chose to do,
Drowning in your lifetimes dreams, one day you might just realise theres no point to this.
Cos we’re wading, oh,
Wading under water, yeah.
And we’re wading, oh,
Wading under water, yeah.
Cos we’re deaf in this silence, we’ll never get right back to the start,
With our eyes closed to the sky now, we’ll never see it falling apart,
And with everything around you, you’ve never been so lonely before,
And now were walking over water, you’ll never burn the fire again.
Cos we’re wading, oh,
Wading under water, yeah.
And we’re wading, oh,
Wading under water, yeah.
