How To Swim
I thought I knew how to swim
But it seems
That I've forgotten everything I thought I knew about myself
So now I drift to the deep end
I thought I knew where I was
But these thoughts
Don't seem to help me find my way when everything all looks the same
So now I'm lost under water again
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew everything
I didn't know I was avoiding
The fact I'm falling
And if I'm gonna make it out I'm gonna need to let you in
I hear you calling up above my head
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew everything
I thought that on my own I could win
I thought I knew how to swim
I didn't know, didn't know you could walk on water
I didn't know, didn't know maybe I didn't wanna
But now I see, now I see you are reaching out to me as I sink
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew everything
I thought that on my own I could win
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew how to swim
But it seems
That I've forgotten everything I thought I knew about myself
So now I drift to the deep end
I thought I knew where I was
But these thoughts
Don't seem to help me find my way when everything all looks the same
So now I'm lost under water again
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew everything
I didn't know I was avoiding
The fact I'm falling
And if I'm gonna make it out I'm gonna need to let you in
I hear you calling up above my head
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew everything
I thought that on my own I could win
I thought I knew how to swim
I didn't know, didn't know you could walk on water
I didn't know, didn't know maybe I didn't wanna
But now I see, now I see you are reaching out to me as I sink
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew everything
I thought that on my own I could win
I thought I knew how to swim
I thought I knew how to swim
