Sink or Swim

The time had come to salvage what I've lost
 Give me strength to destroy this fame monster
 The stars that shine have blinded my eyes
 I've traded fame and lies for the price
 It's time to sink or swim
 But my heart is sinking to the ocean bed
 Time won't wait, I can feel the tides are turning
 Will I be swept away?
 For the price of my own soul
 The devil is calling
 You'll never take my soul
 Must I?
 So callous and blind
 Forsaken my identity for the bright city lights
 Give me the strength I need to kill this fame monster
 Just bring me bravery to face this faceless dream
 It's time to sink or swim
 But my heart is sinking to the ocean bed
 Time won't wait, I can feel the tides are turning
 Will I be swept away?
 This is my final breath
 My day of contempt
 As the waves come crashing down,
 I weep
 I'm so ashamed
 I've traded fame and lies
 Rip these stars from my eyes, and bring me back to reality
 Give me strength
 Destroy the demon within and bring me back to reality
 It's time to sink or swim
 But my heart is sinking to the ocean bed
 Time won't wait, I can feel the tides are turning
 Will I be swept away?
 (I'm sinking)
 For the price of my own soul
 For the price of my own
