lyrics

Well, the tide is strong, the waves are unrelenting,
You can try to fight or just sink down below
When the ship went down, the rich men took the lifeboats,
And our rafts capsized a long, long time ago

Sometimes it's enough to keep on breathing,
While the undercurrent tries to drag you down
They always say mistakes can be forgiven,
But you only get one chance to turn this 'round

If you need a ride, I'm heading for the city,
I've heard they'll pay a man to play the fool
There's a longer road, which leads to greener pastures,
If you keep your head down, if you keep your cool

Sometimes it's enough to keep on breathing,
While the undercurrent tries to drag you down
They always say mistakes can be forgiven,
But you only get one chance to turn this 'round

They offered you a hollow Aphrodite,
To chase a dream you never could fulfil
All lined up to make you feel a failure,
On a diet of the cheapest, quickest thrills

They always say mistakes can be forgiven,
But you only get one chance to turn this 'round
Sometimes it's enough to keep on breathing,
While the undercurrent tries to drag you down,
While the undercurrent tries to drag you down,
While the undercurrent tries to drag you down
