I’m Swimming Lyrics by Balance and Composure

The Things We Think We’re Missing

2013

Honeyglow
You tear me up, leaving it all exposed
Just so you know
And all these chemicals
Become the only thing I really know
And I keep them close
Ocean blue
I'm swimming in the very midst of you
You should try it too
Come on and feel it out
Tell me everything you think about
When we're not dreaming
Be my only flame
Caught me swimming in a daydream
Caught me blocking out all my past
But take me back and be my time machine
Show me the sky from a new perspective
Lay me down
Feeling the world spin me all around
Got to fight these demons
As I'm coming down
It slips away as your body drowns
Leaving me so empty
Holding smoke
Should I expect to see your holy ghost
And its voice of reason?
Honeyglow
Don't tear me up and leave me all exposed
When we're only dreaming
Be my only flame
Clean me out and lead me on to grace
Caught me swimming in a daydream
Caught me blocking out all my past
But take me back and be my time machine
Show me the sky from a new perspective
Caught me swimming in a daydream
Caught me blocking out all my past
But take me back and be my time machine
Show me the sky from a new perspective
Dark, dark, dark
I was walking in the dark
I was carrying a message but I left it in the dark
There's a light, light, light
And it's shining on my heart
Lighting up my head and soon will tear me all apart
And you say
That this is not about changing all my ways
My sad ways
Come back in May
When the sun is always shining on your face
And my face
