You've gotta swim |
|
Swim for your life |
|
Swim for the music that saves you |
|
When you're not so sure you'll survive |
|
You've gotta swim |
|
And swim when it hurts |
|
The whole world is watching |
|
You haven't come this far to fall off the earth |
|
The currents will pull you |
|
Away from your love |
|
Just keep your head above |
|
I found a tidal wave begging to tear down the dawn |
|
Memories like bullets they fired at me from a gun |
|
A crack in the armor |
|
I swim for brighter days |
|
Despite the absence of sun |
|
Choking on saltwater |
|
I'm not giving in |
|
I swim |
|
You've gotta swim |
|
Through nights that won't end |
|
Swim for your families |
|
Your lovers |
|
Your sisters and brothers |
|
And friends |
|
You've gotta swim |
|
Through wars without cause |
|
Swim for the lost politicians |
|
Who don't see their greed as a flaw |
|
The currents will pull us |
|
Away from our love |
|
Just keep your head above |
|
I found a tidal wave begging to tear down the dawn |
|
Memories like bullets they fired at me from a gun |
|
A crack in the armor |
|
I swim for brighter days |
|
Despite the absence of sun |
|
Choking on saltwater |
|
I'm not giving in |
|
I swim |
|
You've gotta swim |
|
Swim in the dark |
|
There's no shame in drifting |
|
Feel the tide shifting |
|
And wait for the spark |
|
You've gotta swim |
|
Don't let yourself sink |
|
Just find the horizon |
|
I promise you it's not as far as you think |
|
The currents will drag us |
|
Away from our love |
|
Just keep your head above |
