Treading Water Lyrics by Glass Heart (UK)

In Opposite

2019

Why do I do this to myself?
I'd follow you down a wishing well
I'll never learn
'Cos I love the way it burns
When you don't show concern
About the pool of blood beside my head
I've lost control
I've placed my bets and fold
I fall asleep so I can dream again and play pretend
My friends say I am treading water now
My friends say I am treading water now
Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
I'd follow you down a wishing well (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
You've got a way to make things worse
You've gotta lie so bad it hurts
Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway)
Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway)
I'll never learn
'Cos I love the way it burns
When you don't show concern
About the pool of blood beside my head
I've lost control
I've placed my bets and fold
I fall asleep so I can dream again and play pretend
My friends say I am treading water now
Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
I'd follow you down a wishing well (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
You've got a way to make things worse
You've gotta lie so bad it hurts
Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
I'm treading water now
With my head above the surface I'll be fine
I'm treading water now
With my head above the surface I'll be fine
I've lost control
I've placed my bets and fold
I fall asleep so I can dream again and play pretend
I'm treading water now
I'm treading water now
Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
I'd follow you down a wishing well (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
You've got a way to make things worse
You've gotta lie so bad it hurts
Why do I do this to myself? (I'm a runaway, I'm a runaway)
My friends say I am treading water now
My friends say I am treading water now
