[Verse 1: Dave Grunewald]

Head underwater, so easy to get lost

No need to bother, expect the worst

Keep my head underwater till I'm unconscious

Let's count the seconds together till my heart is at rest

[Pre-Chorus 1: Christoph Wieczorek & Dave Grunewald]

I am on the way to the dead

One, two, three, four

A rush of blood to the head

Five, six, seven, eight, stop

[Chorus: Christoph Wieczorek & Dave Grunewald]

You think it's just a second in a world of time

But how much is it when it comes to dying?

One second can decide about now or never

Will you stay or go? Nothing lasts forever

Nothing lasts forever

[Verse 2: Dave Grunewald]

Driving down the avenue out of town

Which is the tree for you? Let's count them down

Driving through the night, straight through red traffic lights

Should I grip the wheel tight? Or should I just let go?

[Pre-Chorus 2: Christoph Wieczorek & Dave Grunewald]

Do you ever think of staying underwater

Eight, seven, six, five

What is it that keeps me from doing it?

Four, three, two, one, stop

[Chorus: Christoph Wieczorek & Dave Grunewald]

You think it's just a second in a world of time

But how much is it when it comes to dying

One second can decide about now or never

Will you stay or go? Nothing lasts forever

[Bridge: Christoph Wieczorek]

It's the heaviest choice to cross the dark line

'Cause every time I try, you stay there and shine

It's the heaviest choice because you're in my mind

Every time I try diving into the black water void

[Outro: Dave Grunewald & Christoph Wieczorek]

You light me up, you light me up

In these dark times

You light me up, you light me up

In these dark times, in these dark times
