[Verse 1]
This is a life of extremes
Both sides are slippery and enticing
These are my places off the rails
And this, my loose recollection of a falling
I barely remember who I failed
I was just trying to keep it together

[Chorus]
This is my first wave of my white flag
This is the sound of me hitting bottom
This, my surrender, if that's what you call it
In the anatomy of my crash

[Post-Chorus]
And I keep on smiling
Keep on moving
Can't stand still

[Verse 2]
Me, the ceiling-less [?]
Me, the notorious perfect lover
Lured to the ends of overwhelm

[Chorus]
This is the first wave of my white flag
This is the sound of me hitting bottom
This, my surrender, if that's what you call it
In the anatomy of my crash
[Post-Chorus]
And I keep on smiling
Keep on moving
Can't stand still

[Verse 3]
Such pretty forks in the road
On this continuum I've been bouncing
Life flashing promise before my eyes

[Chorus]
This is my first wave of my white flag
This is the sound of me hitting bottom
This, my surrender, if I can bare it
In the anatomy of my crash

[Post-Chorus]
And I keep on smiling
Keep on moving
Can't stand still
