It took some time but now I can see my faults, and
I've made up my mind now, see how the water falls, and
It's so personal that I could not come to terms with
The choices that I've made, well, it seems I'm here to stay
The waves are strong, but they won't pull me down
I know right from wrong and that's the strength I've found
It's been a while but I think I've got it now
The waves are strong but they won't pull me down
Down on myself for doing things I said I'd never do
Well I've made mistakes, yeah, all part of growing up it's true
We see eye to eye, but there was no way for me to know
Until I tried I've seen the lies I know which way to go
Forget what I've learned, learn to forget
I never wanted this, I'm happy with the way it was
With success that I have earned comes hatred
I never wanted this, I really never wanted this
Down
Down
Down
Down
The waves are strong but they won't pull me down
I know right from wrong and that's the strength I've found
It's been a while but I think I've got it now
The waves are strong but they won't pull me...
