I've got a mind that won't stop moving
It's always got me on the run
But she can stop me in a heartbeat
I think she does it just for fun

cnd the suits on the TV started another fight
Over who can tell the most elaborate lie
cnd the water's getting higher while the world is on fire
But I forget just for a minute when her eyes meet mine

The headlines keep dragging me down
But my head's above water
When the noise gets so loud I could drown
She keeps me from going under

Well I'm not that kind of person
I like to keep things to myself
But she can have me any way she wants me
She's got a touch like no one else

There's a guy with a megaphone holding a sign
Yelling something about the end of time
He don't know what he's saying, he can't understand
The way that time stops moving when she's holding my hand

The headlines keep dragging me down
But my head's above water
When the noise gets so loud I could drown
She keeps me from going under

cnd I've been talking in my sleep
Cause the noise follows me in my dreams
But she always knows just what I need
No she never lets me fall too deep

The headlines keep dragging me down
But my head's above water
When the noise gets so loud I could drown
She keeps me from going under

Head's above water
She keeps me from going under
My head's a-bove water
