[Verse 1]
Don't wanna go, trying to keep
Too tired to fight, leave me to sweep up my pieces
It's only weakness
Give me the strength, I don't wanna fall
When I don't know how to deal with it all
The waves overthrow me
With fire and salt
I can't get my oxygen
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't get my oxygen
[Chorus]
Maybe I'm done with the violence
Maybe with love, it'll make sense
Maybe it's all in our intent
Deep down, we are innocent
Maybe I'm done with the violencе
Maybe with love, it'll make sеnse
Maybe it's all in our intent
Deep down, we are innocent
Maybe I'm done with the violence
[Verse 2]
When you got hurt, you wanted to scream
Burrow yourself into a dream
Didn't you notice?
We're just a witness
Open your eyes, look at the signs
Think of the hate you've been holding inside
The waves can uplift you
'Cause it's not their fault
If you can't get your oxygen
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't get my oxygen
[Chorus]
Maybe I'm done with the violence
Maybe with love, it'll make sense
Maybe it's all in our intent
Deep down, we are innocent
Maybe I'm done with the violence
Maybe with love, it'll make sense
Maybe it's all in our intent
Deep down, we are innocent
Maybe I'm done with the violence
[Outro]
Maybe I'm done with the violence
Maybe with love, it'll make sense
Maybe it's all in our intent
Deep down, we are innocent
Maybe I'm done with the violence
Maybe with love, it'll make sense
Maybe it's all in our intent
Deep down, we are innocent
