Drag Me In

the water is risin
it's ten feet deep
the undertow sweeps
me off of my feet
throw me a line
and drag me in
the currents to swift
and I can't swim
throw me a line
and drag me in

lightning streaks
across my sky
thunder crashes
in the night
hope stays useless
on the other side
be my savior
shed some light
throw me line
and drag me in
