I'm Not Waving

I'm not waving to you

I'm drowning

And I hope for you to see

I'm not waving to you

I'm drowning

So why you waving back at me

I'm so tired of fighting the waves

I feel like going down

So desperately trying to be saved

Lend that hand your waving

Pull me aground

As I'm calling out to you

I wonder

Why my cry ain't getting through

Then a thought came to me

As I'm going under

Maybe you were drowning too

I'm caught in a tide of dismay

That I cannot defy

There's something you're trying to say

Now I know you're waving

Waving goodbye

So many waves

So many waves

So many hands are waving

So many hands are pulling me down

Below

My tears

Raining so long

Keep on crying

Keep on crying

Keep on rising

Keep on rising
