Verse 1)
Another sunrise, same old haze
Another wasted year in this emotional maze
The empty bottles still line the floor
Knocking on the same old lowlife door
Used to think this was my fate, my only way
Living for the night, dreading the day
But something's stirring deep inside
A restless current, turning with the tide
(Chorus)
High Tide's coming, washing clean
Erasing shadows of what used to be
No more sinking, no more drownin' in the past
This new conviction, built to last
Yeah, High Tide's calling, pulling me from the deep
Secrets I've buried, promises to keep
Breaking the surface, gasping for air
Leaving the lowlife, shedding every care
(Verse 2)
The voices whisper, try to pull me back
To the comfort of the well-worn track
They say "You're nothing, you'll always fall"
But I'm deaf to their lies, standing tall
Remember the mirror, that vacant stare?
The self-made prison, a constant despair
But the reflection's changing, day by day
A flicker of purpose, lighting the way
(Chorus)
High Tide's coming, washing clean
Erasing shadows of what used to be
No more sinking, no more drownin' in the past
This new conviction, built to last
Yeah, High Tide's calling, pulling me from the deep
Secrets I've buried, promises to keep
Breaking the surface, gasping for air
Leaving the lowlife, shedding every care
(Bridge)
It ain't easy, this climb to the sun
Battles fought, battles won
But every step, a victory claimed
A future brighter, bravely framed
The undertow tries to drag me down
But I'm fighting back in this desolate town
For the first time, I can see the shore
Leaving the lowlife, forevermore
(Chorus)
High Tide's coming, washing clean
Erasing shadows of what used to be
No more sinking, no more drownin' in the past
This new conviction, built to last
Yeah, High Tide's calling, pulling me from the deep
Secrets I've buried, promises to keep
Breaking the surface, gasping for air
Leaving the lowlife, shedding every care
(Outro)
No more lowlife, no more chains
Just the rhythm of the pouring rains
Washing away the dirt, the grime
Living now, for the very first time.
High Tide.
