now you're swimming

Now youre swimming
It dont even feel right
You hate your body
You know it shows
Theyre acting crazy
Out there in the deep end
Theyre shouting curse words
And acting crazy
You got a cop for a dad
And you dont want any more
Off-duty advice now
You got a saint in the eye
And you dont want any more
Guilt-tripping advice now
Theyll figure it out
And they can keep you in the dark
Afternoon is your own time
Alone time
Well figure it out
And then well keep you in the dark
Afternoon is the wrong time
And now youre painting
And you dont even feel right
You hate the colors
And you know theyll bleed
Theyre acting foolish
Out there in the darkroom
Rolling quarters, going wild
You got a cop in your face
And you dont want any more
Time left alone with him
You got a saint for a mom
And you know all the ways out
The back door and on out
Theyll figure it out
And then theyll keep you in the dark
Afternoon is your own time
Alone time
Well figure it out
And then well keep you in the dark
Afternoon is the wrong time
