[Verse 1]
AmWhen I was 5 years old
F CAnd I was scared to sleep alone on darker nights
Am FI thought the monsters would all try to eat me
CIf they saw my open eyes
Am F CMy mother taught me praying to my Maker would send angels to my aid
Am F CAs a child, I learned that messages to Heaven were the way to keep me safe
[Chorus]
Am F CThrow me in the waves
Am F CThrow me in the ocean, I've been hopeless in this boat with all my shame
Am F CThrow me in the waves
AmAnd if I'm swallowed by a monster
F CI know God's here and I'll make it out okay
[Verse 2]
Am F CThen everything was wonderful and marvelous with God paving the way
Am F CI pushed myself to follow every message and commandment that He gave
Am F CAnd no one seemed to notice as my mental health slowly withered away
Am F C'Cause if you feel like you are trapped inside yourself, it has to be a test of faith
[Chorus]
Am F CThrow me in the waves
Am F CThrow me in the ocean, I've been hopeless in this boat with all my shame
Am F CThrow me in the waves
AmAnd if I'm swallowed by a monster
F CI know God's here and I'll make it out okay
[Verse 3]
Am F CI'm 22 years old, and I'm still scared to sleep alone on darker nights
Am F'Cause when I needed God the most, He left me out for dead
CHe left my side
Am FMaybe He's just a thing our parents made
CBecause it helps them to feel safe
Am FBut if He's real, one day I'll get to meet Him
CThen I know just what I'll say
[Chorus]
Am F CThrow me in the waves
Am FI was swallowed by the monster, and you disappeared
CYou don't deserve your place
Am F CThrow me in the waves
AmAnd I'd rather drown and die
F CThan have to spend all of my life with missplaced faith
