Just give me something to believe in!
Something I can sink my teeth into!
Looking for a deeper meaning
Been sitting on my hand so damn long, I've lost a feeling
I'm kinda reckless, give me a reason to keep on breathing
You know that I need it

How can I get this message to you?
Just tell me what I need to do!

Lost in the shadows again, we're just children of men
Can I stay afloat when the world wants me to tread (tread) ?
I take the mask off my face, all my tears on display
Can I stay afloat when the world wants me to tread (tread) ?

Tryna fight off all my demons
'S why this world's got me feeling some kind of way
Such a wonder I'm still breathing
Tryna bite my tongue and find my place
And where there's smoke there is fire beneath the surface
Show me a liar and I'll show you nervous

How can I get this message to you?
Just tell me what I need to do!

Lost in the shadows again, we're just children of men
Can I stay afloat when the world wants me to tread (tread) ?
I take the mask off my face, all my tears on display
Can I stay afloat when the world wants me to tread (tread) ?
(World wants me to tread)
(World wants me to tread)

When the tide goes on, it washes all my pain away
(My pain away)
When the tide goes on, it washes all my pain away

Lost in the shadows again, we're just children of men
Can I stay afloat when the world wants me to tread (tread) ?
I take the mask off my face, all my tears on display
Can I stay afloat when the world wants me to tread (tread) ?
(Tread) (tread) (the world wants me to tread)
