Swim Lyrics by Avenade

Vice Versa in Such Things

2020

Tell me your secrets, young one
I can feel you breathe on the wire
The system’s at its finest hour
So you should just hang it up
I want to know you, Frusciante
You play with such a fire burning wild
The system has it all worked out
Competing just like this

And I'm feeling estranged
I’ve waited ‘til you were tongue tied
I will never live an honest life
When mother melts, we’ll all just end up swimming

Take it in, one by one
You hate the way I play?
You'rе just a menace
Go ahead, makе my year
Are you through with that?
I begged in slo-mo
I draw my final card
Who would think I owed you a turn
You sucked up to everyone with a thorne
You won’t beat me
You're losing time
It's still your meltdown
And I want to break you free

And I’m feeling estranged
I’ve awakened you all to a new life
I am never going to give this up
When father dies, we’ll all just keep on swimming

These light lies
These cold tears
These dark times
These bold fears

And I’m estranged
Swim
