Swim

Keep watch
With eyes that that scan the sea
Shore lost, drifting like a leaf
Hope dashed right before my eyes
Endless blue endless night
You've got to hurt before you heal
You've got to earn a heart of steel
You've got to float before you learn to swim
And I watch my guiding star
As it plunges to the dark
I wish I'd thrown my heavy heart
To break the water
Break my fall
Keep watch
With eyes that that scan the sea
Shore lost, drifting like a leaf
Hope dashed right before my eyes
Endless blue endless night
You've got to hurt before you heal
You've got to earn a heart of steel
You've got to float before you learn to swim
I was only only trying not to sink
I was only trying
I was only only trying not to sink
I was only trying
And I watch my guiding star
As it plunges to the dark
I wish I'd thrown my heavy heart
To break the water break my fall
