Lifeline Tab

by Mat Kearney


                                            
you’re watching everything you ever held on to
slip away from you
                                                   
and all you’re running from well it’s catching up to you
                       
got you looking for a lifeline
                
swimming in the high tide
                 
waiting for the daylight
                 
to bring you home

                    
the world is too big to never ask why
                                        
the answers don’t fall straight out of the sky
                    
i’m fighting to live and feel alive
                                        
but i can’t feel a thing without you by my side
    
    send me out a lifeline

                                          
you’re watching everyone you ever belonged to
walk away from you
                                            
maybe all along you’ve been running from the truth
          
                      
got you looking for a lifeline
                       
you’re swimming in the high tide
                
waiting for the daylight
                 
to bring you home

                               
there’s nothing i would change, i’d give it all away
                           
for you again and again and over again
                                
everything i own is in your control
