Undertow

i struggle in this private ocean 
pray the waves don't cover me 
caught in this strong emotion 
drifting on the deepest sea 
i don't know how i got here 
but there's a full moon out tonight 
i can see the distant shore 
i'm drowning with land in sight 

feels like i'm goin' under 
feels like i'm goin' under 
feels like i'm goin' under 

this was the place they showed me 
said it was safe to go 
i walked out where it was shallow 
it was dark, i took it slow 
i never saw it comin' 
my blindness took my choice 
you gave me several warnings 
but i couldn't hear your voice 

can you hear me as i'm callin' out to you? 
can you hear me through these waves of thunder? 
can you see me as i'm wavin' out my hand? 
can you save me now? 
i wonder
