[Verse 1]
It could be worse
I could be alone
I could be locked in here on my own
Or like a stone that suddenly drops
It never stops, no
[Verse 2]
I could be lost
Or I could be saved
Calling out from beneath the waves
Beaten down by this ocean rain
Never again
Never again
[Chorus]
Screaming out from the crests of waves
[Verse 3]
It could be worse
Bitter or sweet
It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat
Or like a light lit up on a beach
Wear your heart on your sleeve
[Verse 4]
You want to stop before you begin
You want to sink when you know you could swim
You want to stop just before you begin
Never give in
Never give in
[Chorus]
Screaming out from the crests of waves
[Bridge]
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Except life and the love you make
[Chorus]
Screaming out from the crests of waves
[Outro]
Screaming out from the crests of waves
You're longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves
You are longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves
It could be worse
I could be alone
I could be locked in here on my own
Or like a stone that suddenly drops
It never stops, no
[Verse 2]
I could be lost
Or I could be saved
Calling out from beneath the waves
Beaten down by this ocean rain
Never again
Never again
[Chorus]
Screaming out from the crests of waves
[Verse 3]
It could be worse
Bitter or sweet
It could be snapped from the jaws of defeat
Or like a light lit up on a beach
Wear your heart on your sleeve
[Verse 4]
You want to stop before you begin
You want to sink when you know you could swim
You want to stop just before you begin
Never give in
Never give in
[Chorus]
Screaming out from the crests of waves
[Bridge]
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Nothing matters
Except life and the love you make
Except life and the love you make
[Chorus]
Screaming out from the crests of waves
[Outro]
Screaming out from the crests of waves
You're longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves
You are longing to be saved
Screaming out from the crests of waves
