Sharks!

And then we get to the shore

It could be an open grave

But we want more

We want more

And maybe Simon was first

To dive into those waves

But we all had thirst

We all had thirst

And all I remember is that we were the ones who lived

We're still not dead

Just swim from the red

There is an ending up ahead

I know

So forget all your prayers and signal flares

Just like the sharks around us now

We'll die if we stop swimming

We'll die if we stop swimming

There may be a rescue boat

Or a sandy coast

But no map will save us now

We'll die if we stop swimming

We'll die if we stop swimming

And now these city streets are sloping

To a place where we lost hope in you

And all I know is we kept going

Though our fingers were so frozen too

Sometimes it doesn't matter how you win

But just that you're standing in the end

So forget all your prayers and signal flares

Just like the sharks around us now

We'll die if we stop swimming

We'll die if we stop swimming

There may be a rescue boat

Or a sandy coast

But no map will save us now

We'll die if we stop swimming

We'll die if we stop swimming

Sometimes it doesn't matter how you win

But just that you're standing in the end

And all I remember is that we were the ones who lived

And all I remember is we were the ones who lived

Just like the sharks around us now

We'll die if we stop swimming

So forget all your prayers and signal flares

Just like the sharks around us now

We'll die if we stop swimming

We'll die if we stop swimming

There may be a rescue boat

Or a sandy coast

But no map will save us now

We'll die if we stop swimming

We'll die if we stop swimming

We'll die if we stop swimming
