Afloat

Lyrics

[Verse 1] She rides home with a couple of friends They all laugh at a text they just sent Cause she'd do anything just to belong He wakes up still in his clothes There's a knock on the door Do his parents know What it's like to always be alone? [Chorus] I'm clinging to a shirt you always used to wear That summer, got your number and you made me swear That I would always be there Skipping classes in the morning, we'd go anywhere All the secrets and the burdens that we use to share Still, I will always be here But on my darkest day, I'll stay afloat [Verse 2] They're just words written down by some kids They probably don't even know what they did But this time, she might never let it go It's just a game, and some guys with a ball The blood and bruises aren't because of the falls And this time, he might never let it go [Chorus] I'm clinging to a shirt you always used to wear That summer, got your number, and you made me swear That I would always be there Skipping classes in the morning, we'd go anywhere All the secrets and the burdens that we use to share Still, I will always be here But on my darkest day, I'll stay afloat [Bridge] We could be anything We've got to protect, and we've got to hold on If we could see what we mean You and I can stay afloat I pray that you can stay afloat [Alt. Chorus] Staring at the shirt you always used to wear That summer, changed your number, and you cut your hair Said I will always be there Skipping classes in the morning, lets go anywhere All the secrets and the burdens that are left to share Still, I will always be here And on my darkest day On our darkest day We will find a way to stay afloat
