Literature Text

Whatever you do, don’t lose control
Keep a straight face when the rain waves come crashing through your soul
Whatever your are, you’re all alone
The water’s coming through the cracks because it knows nobody’s home

Dreaming of the weekend like you’ve always been asleep
Dreaming of a future you’re not good enough to keep
They say you don’t know where you’re going, you don’t like where you're at
This world will swallow you up, just like that, just like that
I don’t think so

Hold your ground, don't look down, in the rain
Hold a little longer
Hold on, hold on
There’s beauty in treading water
When you were meant to drown

Whatever you think, it’s not right
Looking over from the darkness seeing nothing in the light
Whatever you’ll be, it’s more than this
For the right to want to fight for the right to want to live

This shade is who we are and just who I deserve to be
Memories of enemies and every one is me
They say you don’t know where you’re going, you don’t like where you're at
This world will swallow you up, just like that, just like that
I don’t think so

Hold your ground, don't look down, in the rain
Hold a little longer
Hold on, hold on
There’s beauty in treading water
When you were meant to drown

Chin up, eyes up, breathe in, swim
It’s motion not perfection that will save you when the water pulls you in
Left kick, right kick you can’t break free
Keep fighting you'll get strong enough to be who you’re supposed to be
Who you hoped you’d be, who you need to be

Dreaming of the weekend like you’ve always been asleep
Dreaming of a future you’re not good enough to keep
They say you don’t know where you’re going, you don’t like where you're at
This world will swallow you up, just like that, just like that
I don’t think so

Hold your ground, don't look down, in the rain
Hold a little longer
Hold on, hold on
There’s beauty in treading water
When you were meant to drown

Chin up, eyes up, breathe in, swim
It’s motion not perfection that will save you when the water pulls you in
Left kick, right kick you can’t break free
Keep fighting you'll get strong enough to be who you’re supposed to be
Who you hoped you’d be, who you need to be
My new single released today
For those going through mental illness
You can listen to the track here ...> soundcloud.com/bethany-munroe/…
