swim back

is this what you want?

wrecked on the hunt

for impossible treasure

i’m floating at sea

all the debris

lifeless around me

don’t know where i belong

but it’s not to you

treading water

out in the blue

when i’m stranded

how do

i swim back to me

and not to you?

I swim back to me

and not to…

you tug at the thread

get in my head

til i unravel

never good enough

brushing it off

losing the paddle

don’t know where i belong

but it’s not to you

treading water

out in the blue

when i’m stranded how do

i swim back to me

and not to you?

i’m getting tired always fighting

up against your current

open my eyes the sun is bright

i’m blind to where i’m going

all i know in the undertow

i’ll swim back to me and not to you

i’ll swim back to me and not to you
