Chords used:
Verse 1:
Beneath the water, that's fallen from my eyes
Lays a soul I left behind
The edge of sorrow, was reached but now I'm fine
I filled the hole I had inside
Bridge 1:
I'll pray it doesn't scream my name
So I light a flame and let it breathe, the air that kills the shame
Chorus 1:
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
Verse 2:
A risky morning, I feel like I'm alive
I can't believe I made it through this time
The edge of sorrow, I lived in for some time (lived in for some time)
Has left the hole I have inside
Bridge 2:
The burden is I try my hate
Was the last thing I ever felt, or thought I could escape
Chorus 2:
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
Interlude:
You led me here then broke me down
The difference is this time around
I will not let you see me drown
Chorus 3:
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
Erased the past again now
Erased the past again
Outro:
Beneath the water, that's fallen from my eyes
