Sink or Swim
You're drowning
I'm swimming
I see you've staked your claim at the highest peak
I bet you feel so brave
But did you plan your return
Oh what a shame it'd be to see you fall face first
And I'm not wishing any ill will
But I've seen people just like you crash and burn
I'm not saying I know best but I kindly suggest that
You take a look at yourself
Are you somebody else
Think of all the people you've hurt
I bet it's really lonely six feet in the dirt
We see the smoke from the bridges your burning
Will you ever learn
Will you ever learn
You can't deny that the tables are turning
So are you gonna sink or learn how to swim
I had a discussion with all the kings horses and all the kings men
And I'm sorry to say we think you're better off broken my friend
Do you think your some diamond in the rough
Was your silver platter just not enough
I hate to cause a disruption
But I'm beginning to make my assumptions
Can you look me in the eyes
Your reflection will highlight your demise
We don't need to have a conversation
When I've been watching every demonstration of
Who you want me to think you are
When in reality you left us in the dark
I've been picking you apart from the very start
We see the smoke from the bridges your burning
Will you ever learn
Will you ever learn
You can't deny that the tables are turning
Are you done wasting our time
You've cut ties with what's feasible
Forgot all that's meaningful
Let's see how low you can go
We see the smoke from the bridges your burning
So are you gonna sink or learn how to swim
And when you face your mistake
And your momentum breaks
I wanna hear you scream and shout
So I know that it hurts without a shadow of a doubt
Shadow of a doubt
We see the smoke from the bridges your burning
Will you ever learn
Will you ever learn
You can't deny that the tables are turning
Are you done wasting our time
You've cut ties with what's feasible
Forgot all that's meaningful
Let's see how low you can go
We see the smoke from the bridges your burning
So are you gonna sink or learn how to swim
Learn how to swim
So are you gonna sink or learn how to swim
I'm swimming
I see you've staked your claim at the highest peak
I bet you feel so brave
But did you plan your return
Oh what a shame it'd be to see you fall face first
And I'm not wishing any ill will
But I've seen people just like you crash and burn
I'm not saying I know best but I kindly suggest that
You take a look at yourself
Are you somebody else
Think of all the people you've hurt
I bet it's really lonely six feet in the dirt
We see the smoke from the bridges your burning
Will you ever learn
Will you ever learn
You can't deny that the tables are turning
So are you gonna sink or learn how to swim
I had a discussion with all the kings horses and all the kings men
And I'm sorry to say we think you're better off broken my friend

We see the smoke from the bridges your burning
So are you gonna sink or learn how to swim
Learn how to swim
So are you gonna sink or learn how to swim
