 FGo to grab your nerve, you Gfind that it is missin'
 FSeems you've lost your faith in Geveryone you know
 FAnd I surely hope that yGou don't plan on winnin'
Better start Gpayin' more attention
To the ones tGhat throw you clear
You are seconGds from the impact,
And you're Dmovin' way too slow

 FLook around your room you Gfind the paint is peelin'
 FYour reflective skin is faGllin' off your bones
 FWell, I must admit I knoGw just how you're feelin'
Must graGb each others collar
Must risGe out of the water
'Cause yGou know as well as I do
That it's Dno fun to die alone
[Chorus]
After all Dthat I've been through,
You're the onGly one that maAtters
Climb to Dsafety
You never left me Gin the dark here Aon my own
Climb to Dsafety
I can feel the water riGsing, let me be Ayour ladder

 FIt's just business, and Git rolls along as usual
Must graGb each others collar
Must risGe out of the water
'Cause yGou know as well as I do
That it's Dno fun to die alone
