You say you're leaving me tonight for somebody else

You say you don't love me, I'll be good by myself

You said it one too many times, but this time is real

Oh love, this water's wide and deeper than sin

So hear me now

Why do I feel so alone?

You left me drowning

So I'll cough up, cough up water

Fill up my lungs with air

You've been holding me down, you've been holding me under, yeah

So I'll cough up, cough up water

Wring out the pain I wear

You've been holding me down, you've been holding me under, yeah

The rivers dry up in the end

So you wanna be a good girl for somebody else

I'm gonna be man enough to fend for myself

We crossed one too many lines and look where we are

Oh Lord I'm losing faith, I'm losing heart

So hear me now

Why do I feel so alone?

You left me drowning

So I'll cough up, cough up water

Fill up my lungs with air

You've been holding me down, you've been holding me under, yeah

So I'll cough up, cough up water

Wring out the pain I wear

You've been holding me down, you've been holding me under, yeah

The rivers dry up in the end

The rivers dry up in the end

Treading the water again

The rivers dry up in the end

Ah yeah

The rivers dry up in the end

Treading the water again

The rivers dry up in the end

The rivers dry up in the end

(Fill up my lungs with air

You've been holding me down, you've been holding me under, yeah)

So I'll cough up, cough up water

Fill up my lungs with air

(You've been holding me down, you've been holding me under, yeah)

So I'll cough up, cough up water

Fill up my lungs with air, (Fill it up)

You've been holding me down, you've been holding me under, yeah

(Been holding me down)

So I'll cough up, cough up water, (Cough it up)

Wring out the pain I wear, (Wring it out)

You've been holding me down, you've been holding me under, yeah

The rivers dry up in the end
