Song lyrics

Your songs remind me of swimming, Which I forgot when I started to sink Dragged further away from the shore, And deeper into the drink Sat on the bottom of the ocean, A stern and stubborn rock 'Cause your songs remind me of swimming, But somehow I forgot I was sinking, and now I'm sunk I was drinking, and now I'm drunk Your songs remind me of swimming, But somehow I forgot I tried to remember the chorus, I can't remember the verse 'Cause that song that sent me swimming, Is now the life jacket that burst Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor, Sinking like a siren that can't swim anymore 'Cause our songs remind me of swimming, But I can't swim anymore Pull me out the water, cold and blue, I open my eyes and I see that it's you, So I dive straight back in the ocean So I dive straight back in the ocean Take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest Take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest Cross my fingers and hope for the best Then all of a sudden, I heard a note, It started in my chest and ended in my throat Then I realized, then I realized, then I realized I was swimming, Yes, I was swimming And now I'm swimming, Yes, I am swimming Your songs remind me of swimming Which I forgot when I started to sink Your songs remind me of swimming, Which I forgot when I started to sink Oh, your songs remind me of swimming, Which I forgot when I started Your songs remind me of swimming, Which I forgot when I started to sink
