The wound is salty and the water is deep
The gravel chips away under your feet
Staring into the night listening to the wolves shout
Waiting for my last cigarette to burn out
Warmed up the coffee and let it burn
The water was boiling and I just couldn't learn
Only time will tell how the story unfolds
Can't expect every chapter to be laced with gold
Somethings gotta give
This ain't no way to live
Fightin our way through each and every day
Swim now or we're gonna drown
Time will heal all them salty wounds
The love I have for you is bigger than the moon
Darlin, there's one thing that you should know
Is that I ain't ever gonna let go
I'll be right by your side
Waitin' for the world to end
I don't know much more than I can pretend
Circlin' around the block
Waitin for the sun to set low
Darlin' there's one thing that we should know
That our love will never let go
Somethings gotta give
This ain't no way to live
Fightin our way through each and every day
Swim now or we're gonna drown
Swim now or we're gonna drown
Swim now or we're gonna drown
