I hold my ear to a shell

I hear something that no one can sell

You know I should live by the sea

'Cause I feel invisible in every city

And I know this feeling too well (too well)

Of being alive at your own funeral

Going: Don't give up on me

Going: Don't give up on me

Please, I'll be the best I can be

I'll be the best I can be

Don't give up on me

I'll come out of my shell

'Cause I want the cake, and I wanna eat it as well

I, I would live in lеaves that crunch under your feet

I wanna be hеard if I can't be seen

And I know this feeling too well (too well)

Of being alive at your own funeral

Going: Don't give up on me

Going: Don't give up on me

Please, I'll be the best I can be

I'll be the best I can be
