I'm counting the seasons
As they're wasting away
There's still light in the darkness
But it's starting to fade

And I see my friends in the distance
While I'm falling behind
Better check the instructions
See if I'm living it right

Life gets heavy, finding where I belong
(Ooh, oh, ooh, oh, ooh, oh, ooh, oh, oh)
I can feel it haunting me, tearing me apart

Maybe when it's over
You'll tell me that it's over
'Cause I've been breathing underwater
Breathing underwater

I try to remember
The feeling of home
I lose it every now and then
I'm worried it's gone

I put all my faith in revival
Like the cats with their lives
Won't you let me down easy
If I've had all of mine?

Maybe when it's over
You'll tell me that it's over
'Cause I've been breathing underwater
Breathing underwater

I'm scared of getting older
Each day a little colder
So, tell me when it's over
'Cause I've been breathing underwater

I dove right in
But only you know it's far too deep to swim

Maybe when it's over
You'll tell me that it's over
'Cause I've been breathing underwater
I'm drowning, I'm drowning

Oh, maybe when it's over
You'll tell me that it's over
'Cause I've been breathing underwater
Breathing underwater

I'm scared of getting older
With worry on my shoulder
So, tell me when it's over
I'm breathing underwater
