The Endless Undertow

[Verse 1] I’m waking up to a tidal wave, Another day in a watery grave. I take a step and the ground gives out, Drowning inside of the noise and the doubt. Every single inch is a desperate fight, Swinging at the water in the dead of the night. ​[Chorus] Caught in the endless undertow! Nowhere to breathe and nowhere to go! Swimming like hell just to stay in my place, With the whole damn world pushing back in my face! It’s a heavy current and a broken line, Fighting for my life just to fall behind! ​[Verse 2] Tying my boots feels like moving a stone, Out in the deep and I’m freezing alone. The water is rising, the current is rigged, Buried alive in the trench that I dig. Nothing comes easy, the anchor is dropped, The pressure is building and it’s never stopped. ​[Bridge] [Frantic, heavy double-kick drum and churning riff] PULLING ME DOWN! DRAGGING ME UNDER! CHOKING ON SALT! DEAFENED BY THUNDER! Give me a break, just an inch of the shore! I don't think my lungs can take anymore! ​[Chorus] Caught in the endless undertow! Nowhere to breathe and nowhere to go! Swimming like hell just to stay in my place, With the whole damn world pushing back in my face! It’s a heavy current and a broken line, Fighting for my life just to fall behind! ​[Outro] [Screamed over a heavy breakdown] I won't sink! I won't let it drag me down! [Heavy guitar chug fades to a sudden stop]
