In the school yard when I was a kid

I gave everyone my address said come on over and it

It turns out that nobody did

Swimmin' alone's how I spent my eighth birthday

Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water

I never got out of the water even though I did

Sometimes it feels like everyone's lookin' at the surface

And it's not happenin' on purpose

But they're takin' things for granted again

I'm learnin' to write my wrongs

And speak up when I feel like I'm not bein' listened to

Some story entered my bones

When I was far too young to know not to listen to

What people say 'cause ah everybody's feelin' the pressure ah

Of a world that keeps tryin' to end us everyday

Sometimes it feels like ah everyone's lookin' at the surface ah

And it's not happenin' on purpose

But they're takin' things for granted again

Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water

I never got out of the water even though I did

Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water

I never got out of the water even though I did

Sometimes it feels like this world's got nothing for me

Gettin' blind stares in return for what I give

Sometimes I feel a ah thousand eyes lookin'

Down at the surface ah

And they're watchin' me drown on purpose

Oh they're takin' things for granted again
