Sink & Swim

You couldn't see
What it cost to pour your own worth over me
When the thought of all alone took what we'd be
And I was there
Lying hopeless on the stairs
Be honest if you care
I don't have a single thing left here

It was sink it was swim
And you can't pretend
You were always kinda different when it came to him
We were out we were in
Look at what we'd been
But the truth was written on my skin

It was lost it was found
When I turned around
You were never really strong enough to pull me out
We were up we were down
Till you let me drown
So afraid to fade in my background

Do you care while you're floating
Truth or dare is all knowing
Afraid if they think you won't win
So we drink to begin
It was sink it was swim

I couldn't see
In reverse you take your time get over me
I'm the words and you're the lines I'm in between
Hopped off the leather couch
With my memories in your mouth
Try to get it through your head
How I'm regretting what we did

It was sink it was swim
And you can't pretend
You were always kinda different when it came to him
We were out we were in
Look at what we'd been
But the truth was written on my skin

It was lost it was found
When I turned around
You were never really strong enough to pull me out
We were up we were down
Till you let me drown
So afraid to fade in my background

Do you care while you're floating
Truth or dare is all knowing
Afraid if they think you won't win
So we drink to begin
It was sink it was swim

You didn't mention that you left the back door open
Or that you left the oven turned to ten
In a mansion pool like an ocean
But I never would've thought you'd push me in
There's a lot of hope in conversation
But I know you and how you wanna let me take your guilt
Did you feel the water separating
When you washed away with what we built

You saw me break like the bottle
You knew why I was scared
You wouldn't stay to remodel
You saw me gasp for air

It was sink it was swim
And you can't pretend
You were always kinda different when it came to him
We were out we were in
Look at what we'd been
But the truth was written on my skin

It was lost it was found
When I turned around
You were never really strong enough to pull me out
We were up we were down
Till you let me drown
So afraid to fade in my background

Do you care while you're floating
Truth or dare is all-knowing
Afraid if they think you won't win
So we drink to begin
It was sink it was swim
