Deadline (Swim, Baba)

Woke up from a dream last night
To remember, it took awhile
Ghosted from my memories
But my eyes remember you well
Guess that's why I cry
Without a why, so often
Maybe why I tell myself that lie
So often
I hate the tear drops, but I
Love the rain
I've come to love you through my pain
And I dont know how to do anything else
See where you left me
A fit of tears, confusion, and
Ultimately I

I feel pain
I feel pain
I feel pain
I just want the rain

All my memories of you are overcast
Can't remember a single sun on your skin
You were dark and beautiful
I still carry you with me, you know
Even your resistance, scared of being known
To be forgotten
Scared of being known, so you forgot me
I'm scared of finding you everywhere else, and
Stuck on finding you before me
Before the thing inside of you broke
And took you from me before I could even know
That all the mistakes and the pain you made with me
Was just you suffering from your own

Remember all the fish we used to find
At the end of your line
I wish you taught me how to reel 'em in
Just least one more time
Born tryna hook you onto mine
But every time I tried
You didn't take the bite

The lake is wide, you're on the otherside
Wish you'd swim over to me
I'm running out of bait, you're running out of minutes. It
Shouldn't be like this
Don't you think about how I eat
Don't you think about how I feel
Don't you think 'bout how I feel

Now I know your pain
Your hand-me-down pain
Worst thing bout this pain
Is my need for rain

I hate the teardrops
But I love the rain
I hate to cry, but I
Need the pain
You left me in a fit of tears
In a predicament I
Can't escape
