Lyrics
Verse 1
Storm is coming, I ride the waves
Saving you, I was so brave
Kind eyes, shark in disguise
I’d swim the channel, no lies
Pre-Chorus
You held my head down, drowning slow
I threw a life jacket—don’t you know?
Life jacket… life jacket…
How could you do that to me?
Drop 1 / Vocal Chop-Friendly
Life jacket! Life jacket!
Crash, crash, crash—waves take control
Life jacket! Life jacket!
Heart beats, heart breaks, I let go
Chorus
Life jacket… life jacket…
You were cold and all alone
Life jacket… life jacket…
I wrapped you up, brought you home
Bridge / Build
Storm raging, waves crashing
Heart breaking, love crashing
Gave my all, you gave me none
I ride the waves… alone, alone
Pre-Drop 2 / Chops
Alone… alone…
Life… jacket… life… jacket…
Drop 2 / Main Festival Drop
Life jacket! Life jacket!
Crash, crash, crash—waves take control
Life jacket! Life jacket!
I ride, I ride, I ride the waves alone
Outro / Fade
Life jacket… life jacket…
Fading waves, fading heart
Life jacket… life jacket…
Now I ride the waves alone
