Breaking Through the Water

Chorus

Now I’m breaking through the water, all the ghosts behind me fade

Caught a lifeline in the terror, pulled me from the masquerade

You can watch me, I’m ascending, to a place where stories bend

No more sinking, I am breathing, this is not how it will end

Post-Chorus

Ooh, I’m alive, alive

Ooh, I survive

Verse 2

Thought I’d fade into the willow, wear my sadness like a veil

Fell so hard under the surface, every memory set sail

Shadows pulling from the river, but I found a hand to hold

Turned the page, turned to color, charted lines where hope unfolds

Pre-Chorus

Tidal pull can strip you naked, leave you shivering at dawn

Still the sun, it found my armor, told me, "Let the dark be gone"

Chorus

Now I’m breaking through the water, all the ghosts behind me fade

Caught a lifeline in the terror, pulled me from the masquerade

You can watch me, I’m ascending, to a place where stories bend

No more sinking, I am breathing, this is not how it will end

Post-Chorus

Ooh, I’m alive, alive

Ooh, I survive
