The Only Hope

When I'm in bed alone
There's a darkness by my side
Not like they sing about in pop songs
No, only the blues can describe it

Feels like drowning now
Feels like sinking down

     It starts out small
     Then it's fifty feet tall
     Crashing down on me like a wave
     I'm a grain of sand
     Clinging onto dry land
     No point in even playing brave
     You're the only hope I'll be saved

Before you, there were none
Who made me want to stick around
For more than just a little fun
But for all kinds of ups and downs

Feel it taking hold
I feel it sinking in

     It starts out small
     Then it's fifty feet tall
     Washing over me like a wave
     I'm a grain of sand
     Clinging onto dry land
     No point in even playing brave
     You're the only hope I'll be saved
