Treading Water

Treading Water (踩水) - Ta-ku/Wafia

Written by：Wafia/Ta-ku

I remember that day you froze over

You wouldn't say you were sober

And when I call you're never honest

Cause I know it's not what I was promised

I swore to myself I'd keep my distance

I'll do my time I'll serve my sentence

Because you're safe when you miss me

Don't waste your time trying to fix this

It's like you never let me past skin deep

Don't trip up on the mess I always leave

I'm trying to make the best of what we've been

I'm no good for you I'm good for you

Forgot you were like ice

And I held on too tight

Under my grip you melted away

I felt you change

My touch was like a vice

And strangled out your light

Under my watch you faded away

I got too close again

I'm set in my ways there's no changing

You'll waste away while you're waiting

Because it goes without saying

The ice is so thin now it's breaking

What could I say to keep you longer

'Cause all our days are getting shorter

Now I feel like a foreigner

Miss the days when it warmer

It's like you never let me past skin deep

Don't trip up on the mess I always leave

I'm trying to make the best of what we've been

I'm no good for you I'm good for you

Forgot you were like ice

And I held on too tight

Under my grip you melted away

I felt you change

My touch was like a vice

And strangled out your light

Under my watch you faded away

I got too close again

Got me treading on water

I I'm goin' under

Got me treading on water

Stop pulling me under

Got me treading on water

I I'm goin' under

Got me treading on water

Stop pulling me under
