[Verse 1]
All the power and the passion
And the glory and the grace
Where has it all gone?
All the dreams worn down
To sad and lonely fantasies
What would you do if you
Ever ever ever could find it all again?
You don't know so you go with the flow
That sets you right down the drain
[Verse 2]
All these lights so bright
Packed in too tight
And choked down by weeds
Such a desperate world
Where it's just all [?]
Is this kind of decay
Really truly okay?
Or do you want to break free?
It's a long, hard fight
Till you start to get it right
And you know it's gonna be
[Chorus]
Swimming against the tide
Reaping against the chains
Playing against the game
It's gonna be tempting
To turn back 'round again
Wishing right through the pain
Wishing the fear aside
With nowhere left to hide
Nothing will be the same again
Nothing will ever be the same
[Bridge]
If you swim against it strong enough
It could turn around
Don't have to let drag you down
Suck you down
Till you drown
I know it looks hard to, hard to do
But not impossible
You know it's only logical
To live what you believe
Can achieve the improbable
Unstoppable
Invincible
Defying the conventional
Reaching
Struck down
You were holding [?] back
[?]
(Struck down)
[Chorus]
So
Struggle against the tide
Everybody to the [?]
Lead it until it's true
Lead it until it comes to you
Walking [?]
'Cause you can find your way back home again
Strike out against the tide
Everybody to the [?]
Lead it until it's true
Lead it until it comes to you
[Interlude]
Everybody [?]
[?]
It's so close that you can taste it, taste it
But don't let you waste it
Not [?] everyone feel it, feel it
To the [?]
[?]
[?]
It's so close that you can taste it, taste it
You're gonna be amazed by [?]
[?]
[Chorus]
Strike out against the tide
Break up beyond the chains
[?] to hide
'Cause you can find your way back home again
Strike out against the tide
Everybody to the [?]
Lead it until it's true
