[Lyrics]

 

I was broken and pushed beyond my limit

To the point of no return

I can still hear their sarcastic laughter,

As they mocked aloud "When would I learn"?

Time passed like a river, flowing chaotically

Without wait or regard

I was given an ultimatum, but it's true what they all say

Old habits die hard

 

Sink or swim, it's time to get up

And stop wallowing under the waves

There's a new day to face, or so they all say,

'Cause a shadow looms over the gates

So too does the sun, I guess for one there is one,

There won't be none 'til the last day has come

So for now I don't think, 'cause time's just a blink,

Let me bask in an ordinary life

 

Ooh

Ooh

Breaking the waves as they crashed all around me

It was then that a thought did occur

I could go with the flow giving up my resistance

And embrace the directional turn

 

Well you wanna know what?

I'm glad that I didn't,

'Cause I learned to prepare for the worst

And because of that fact, I'm grateful whenever

Anything less is delivered

 

It's time now to rise, look myself in the eye

And remind myself the old day has died

But now with all that I've learned, maybe I'll go with the turn

And let come whatever may

 

Ooh

Ooh

Breaking the waves as they crashed all around me

It was then that a thought did occur

I could go with the flow giving up my resistance

And embrace the directional turn
