Swim Lyrics by IDER

Emotional Education

2019

[Verse 1]
I'm underwater with the light of the sun
I swim in neat lines from the poolside, I’m the only one
Slow down and turn around
Stroke back to where I've been gone
When the world looked smaller, I felt capable of more

[Pre-Chorus]
All the love you give, yeah, it's not forgotten
It’s just when I think too much
I'm scared I might sink to the bottom
So I swim harder, push further
Tryna keep my head above the cold water, deep water
But I know I'm swimming for ya

[Chorus]
I'm swimming for ya
Swim to each other
I'm swimming for ya

[Verse 2]
How big's the ocean?
How small is me?
I've become my emotion
God, help me breathe
I'm singing every day, I’ve forgotten what it means
Oh, remember when reality was just a dream

[Pre-Chorus]
All the love you give, yeah, it’s not forgotten
It's just when I think too much
I’m scared I might sink to the bottom
So I swim harder, move faster
We're so afraid of failure, who created all the pressure?
God, I just keep swimming for ya

[Chorus]
I'm swimming for ya
Swim to each other
I'm swimming for ya

[Bridge]
Losing touch, losing perspective
I fray my heart is too invested
Swim to each other
Is it just me? are we all so scared?
I’m in the deep end, I wasn't prepared
God, I just keep swimming to ya

[Pre-Chorus]
All the love you give, yeah, it's not forgotten
And if you think you're drowning
Well, I'll meet you at the bottom
All the love you give, yeah, it's not forgotten
And if you think you're drowning
Well, I'll meet you at the bottom

[Chorus]
I'm swimming for ya
Swim to each other
I'm swimming for ya

[Outro]
All the love you give, yeah, it's not forgotten
(I'm swimming for ya)
And if you think you're drowning, well I'll meet you at the bottom
(Swim to each other)
All the love you give, yeah, it's not forgotten
(I'm swimming for ya)
