Verse 1

Did you ever picture life like this

No shooting star to grant your wish

Are you everything you hoped you'd be

Or caught somewhere in between

You dropped your nickel down a wishing well

And prayed for luck to cast its spell

To bring you closer to your dreams

That always seem just out of reach

Pre-chorus

You pray to God the moment when

You feel the current pull you in

Chorus

Try to keep your head above water

Has never been harder

Even when it feels hopeless

You're gonna get through this

Head above water, gotta fight from going under

Even when it feels useless to wish

..pause

You're gonna get through this

Verse 2

like 1st)

Have you ever felt like giving in

Tried for hours but just can't win

Tell yourself you're not good enough

The struggle alone is just too much

No one's there to hear you scream

You gasp for air but cannot breathe

Did you ever think you'd see the day

When you'd watch your life get washed away

Pre-chorus

Chorus

Solo. Play chords

Bridge

Did it ever hurt so bad

That the thought of feeling lost would never end

Well you will think again

Chorus

Head above water, never been harder

Tryin' to keep your head above water has never been harder

You're gonna get through this

You're gonna get through this

End with
