Swim

You gotta swim
Swim for your life
Swim for the music
That saves you
When youre not so sure youll survive
You gotta swim
Swim when it hurts
The whole world is watching
You havent come this far
To fall off the earth
The currents will pull you
Away from your love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the door
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
Cracking me open now
I swim to brighter days
In spite of the absense of sun
Choking on salt water
Im not giving in

You gotta swim
Tonights the moment
Swim for your family
Your mothers your sisters
Your brothers your friends
You gotta swim
For wars without cause
Swim for these lost politicians
Who dont see their greed is a flaw
The currents will pull us
Away from our love
Just keep your head above

I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the door
Memories like bullets
They fired at me from a gun
Cracking me open now
I swim to brighter days
In spite of the absense of sun
Choking on salt water
Im not giving in
Im not giving in

Swim
You gotta swim
Swim in the dark
Theres an ocean to drift in
Feel the tide shifting away from this war
Yeah you gotta swim
Dont let yourself sink
Just follow the horizon
I promise its not as far as you think
Currents will drag us away from our love
Just keep your head above
Just keep your head above
Swim
Just keep your head above
Swim
Just keep your head above
Swim
