With my head above the water    I can breathe to stay alive   But I'll try a little harder    If you want me to survive       Pre Chorus:   Won't somebody tell me?   How I got to this stage?   When consequence is inconsequential   And   Staring in the spotlight   Is better than real life       Chorus:   It's been surreal, how do you feel   When the seas part before your eyes   It's just so real how does it feel   When the stars that follow die       With my head above the water   I could drift along, beyond the tides   But I can try a little harder   If you help me to reach the other side.       It's been surreal, how do you feel   When the colors have left you blind   It's just so real how does it feel   To have left yourself behind
