Thankfully

That's just like me when everything's gone wrong

To latch onto something even less stable, less good

I needed an anchor for my sinking ship

It's just like me to attach it to my heart instead

I think this was a test

To see how long I could hold my breath

I understand, but I gotta remind myself

That even at my worst I can keep my head

Alone I stand

United we fall apart

One union under God

But not for long, thankfully

That's just like me when everything else fails

To go for the gold, the unattainable goals

Enough's not enough when you're beat to the floor

As if heartache's not heartache enough anymore

I think this was a test

To see how long I could hold my breath

I understand, but I gotta remind myself

That even at my worst I can keep my head

Alone I stand

United we fall apart

One union under God

But not for long, thankfully

When we were young we never cared

And now we're scared of jumping in

Like we've forgotten how to swim

But if we try and if we tread

then we can teach ourselves again

'Cause it's worth the chance we take

When we were young we never cared

But now we're scared of jumping in

Like we've forgotten how to swim

But I think that we should try and we should tread

'Cause if we never take another dip again

We'll never know the joy that failure brings

I understand, but I gotta remind myself

That even at my worst I can keep my head

Alone I stand

United we fall apart

One union under God

But not for long,

One union under God

But not for long, thankfully
