Hold on

B F

Looking for a reason to go on

Alone again

On my own again

Now everything has turned

From right to wrong

Oh, trying to keep afloat

B F

I'm on a sinking boat

Trying to keep afloat

Begining to find

I'm low on time

B F

Floating on the ocean in a storm

The shore is gone

And the end has drowned

But hope only shines

The brighter in the night

Oh, fighting to keep afloat

B F

The world's a sinking boat

Fighting to keep afloat
