Lifeline

(album: Anthem Lights - 2011)

The water was getting higher and higher
My arms kept getting more and more tired
And the harder I would try, the further I would dive down
So I gave up and I finally let go
Stop trying to save myself and be my own hero
And when I opened my eyes, that's when I realized
You were there the whole time

[Chorus:]
I've got a lifeline
Waiting for me, ready to save
Lifeline
This is gonna be my escape
Lifeline
Never giving up on me
You are my lifeline

I thought that I was too far gone to be rescued
But it seems I underestimated You
It's nothing to You, it's too much for me
It's over my head, but it's under Your feet

[Chorus:]
Lifeline
Waiting for me, ready to save
Lifeline
This is gonna be my escape
Lifeline
Never giving up on me
You are my lifeline

[Bridge:]
Lifeline
I thought it was over
I thought I was through
Then I saw You and I knew
(This is gonna be my escape)
Lifeline
I thought it was over
I thought I was through
Then I saw You and I knew
(This is gonna be my escape)

[Chorus: x2]
I've got a lifeline
Waiting for me, ready to save
Lifeline
This is gonna be my escape
Lifeline
Never giving up on me
You are my lifeline
