It's so hard to make an effort
To keep my surroundings in line
When sometimes, I can't do it for myself
I confess: I'm not the man I proclaim
My feet, my feet are sinking
Into the mire beneath me, the mire, the mire beneath me

I can't help but notice the endless battle for air
While being swept by the tides of complacency
My knowledge is accountability
And I have to do something, I have to do something
Blinded by the plank in my eye
I cannot guide anyone

I have to do something. x2

This lonely vessel is surely sinking
I'm surely sinking. x3

Take me
If it means they die to themselves
Only to raise up their new lives
Stop me in my tracks if it will shake them
Stop, stop me
Stop me
We are nothing without each other
