False Start

I guess we'll chalk it up to another false start
I thought you heard the bell
Had an eager heart
Now I'm pushin' out of the pool soaked and sorry

I guess we'll chalk it up to a slip off the block
The crowd grows impatient
They're restarting the clock
And now I'm pushing out of the pool Soaked and sorry
How can I muster the motivation to dive in again inside of me??
Kinda wanna just quit Swimteam entirely

I guess you'll reference it as some kind of lost Sunday
The kind that could be a dream
Floats and fades away cause now
I'm bored in bed Wrestlin' with reality

A temporary escape when the world fell apart
Swore, I smelled your skin
I thought I felt your heart
But now I'm bored in bed
Wrestlin' with reality
How can I tell what is real or fake?
How much more can I take of this war inside of me?
Kinda hope I just quit dreamin' entirely

I remember well the chain link fence Water dripping off of my chin
How is it now, just like then
I'm still jumping in ahead of the rest
I was just trying to do Just trying to be
Just trying to love my best
I guess you'll reference me just another false start
