[Verse 1]
The faster we're falling, we're stopping and stalling
We're running in circles again
Just as things were looking up, you said it wasn't good enough
But still, we're trying one more time

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe we're just trying too hard
When really, it's closer than it is too far

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep
Up above in my head, instead of going under
'Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep
Up above in my head, instead of going under

[Post-Chorus]
Instead of going under

[Verse 2]
Seems like each time I'm with you, I lose my mind
Because I'm bending over backwards to relate
It's one thing to complain, but when you're driving me insane
Well then, I think it's time that we took a break

[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe we're just trying too hard
When really, it's closer than it is too far
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep
Up above in my head, instead of going under
'Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep
Up above in my head, instead of going under

[Post-Chorus]
Instead of going under (instead of going under)
Instead of going under

[Bridge]
I can't sit back and wonder why
It took so long for this to die
And I hate it when you fake it
You can't hide it, you might as well embrace it
So believe me, it's not easy
It seems that something's telling me

[Chorus]
I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep
Up above in my head, instead of going under
'Cause I'm in too deep, and I'm trying to keep
Up above in my head, instead of going under

[Post-Chorus]
Instead of going under
Instead of going under again
Instead of going under
Instead of going under again
Instead of going under again
Instead of going under again
