Blunted Strings Lyrics by Wu-Lu

Learning To Swim On Empty

2024

[Verse 1]
I've been
Standing with my head so low
Deciding
What's right or wrong
Crossing
Red lights in my head so strong
I am losing
This fight to my mind and thoughts gone wrong
'Cause I'm

[Chorus]
Running away, wasting
I know I'm ashamed of time I spent
Running away, chasing
I know I'm ashamed for doubting my dreams

[Post-Chorus]
Got to be right
'Cause there's too much riding on it
Got to be strong
'Cause there's too much riding on it
Got to be right
'Cause there's too much riding on it
Got to be strong
'Cause there's too much riding on it

[Verse 2]
Gotta be there full and equipped
First day of school, shape up there for a pic
Pose for the camera
'Cause this dreamer's gonna go far with no prеssure
School dreamin' was my favourite
No bangs on thе door, no night shifts
Till I was
Growin' higher in demand
Losin' friends, losin' fans
Layin' rest to my gran
I don't know where to stand
So I keep

[Chorus]
Running away, wasting
I know I'm ashamed of time I spent
Running away, chasing
I know I'm ashamed for doubting my dream

[Verse 3]
Life's a game and the maze is tough
If you're fightin' yourself, how you meant to trust?
Swam so long, it's not deep to us
Tough skin wins is what we teachin' them
Had to peace out when I saw the trend
Holdin' fake cards straight to the lens
What's life really when you're on the fence?
Take a risk, tell a story, make amends

[Outro]
We need space to make it whole
Plant these seeds away from smoke
Taking time, hurry up
Feet in clay stood alone
We need space to make it whole
(Got to be right, 'cause there's too much riding on it)
Plant these seeds away from smoke
(Got to be strong, 'cause there's too much riding on it)
Taking time, hurry up
(Got to be right, 'cause there's too much riding on it)
Feet in clay
(Got to be strong)
Stood alone
