Swim Lyrics

You've gotta swim, swim for your life
Swim for the music that saves you
When you're not so sure you'll surviveYou gotta swim and swim when it hurts
The whole world is watching
You haven't come this far to fall off the earthThe currents will pull you away from your love
Just keep your head aboveI found a tidal wave begging to tear down the dawn
Memories like bullets, they fired at me from a gun
Crack in the armor, yeahI swim for brighter days despite the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
But I'm not giving in, I swimYou gotta swim for nights that won't end
Swim for your family as your lovers, your sisters
And brothers, and friendsYeah, you gotta swim through wars without cause
Swim for the lost politicians
Who don't see their greed as a flawThe currents will pull us away from our love
Just keep your head aboveI found a tidal wave begging to tear down the dawn
Memories like bullets, they fired at me from a gun
A crack in the armor, yeahI swim for brighter days despite of the absence of sun
Choking on salt water

I'm not giving in, well, I'm not giving in, I swimYou gotta swim, swim in the dark
There's no shame in drifting
Feel the tide shifting and wait for the sparkYeah, you gotta swim, don't let yourself sink
Just find the horizon
I promise you, it's not as far as you thinkThe 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, swim
Just keep your head above, swim
