lyrics

Can’t swim
Can’t swim

The time felt right
But not tonight
The whole framework did collapse
Exactly at the time they told me to stop
Can you imagine that?
Cause no one did but it felt so good
And now there’s only that fraction
Of a little so called action

I know I can't swim
Would you let me drown in here?
I know I can't win
No one ever will my dear
Been caught there many times before
And after all these moments still sore
Feels like a thousand years of waiting
No understanding, there’s just hating
The patience starts to get so thin
I’m afaraid that I can’t swim

Never thought, ever got taught?
What have I become?
Scratching a living to go on
Can only see the questions but no anwsers
Hiding myself
behind a masking full of hopes and dreams telling me to go on
No one will get the chasing

I know I can't swim
Would you let me drown in here?
I know I can't win
No one ever will my dear
Been caught there many times before
And after all these moments still sore
Feels like a thousand years of waiting
No understanding, there’s just hating
The patience starts to get so thin
I’m afaraid that I can’t swim

It’s allright
I can’t deny

Can’t swim
Can’t swim
