You gotta swim,
Swim for your life.
Swim for the music
That saves you
When you're not so
sure you'll survive.
You gotta swim,
And swim when it hurts.
The whole world is watching,
You haven't come this far
To fall off the earth.
The current will pull you,
Away from your love.
Just keep your head above.
I found a tidal wave
Begging to tear down the dawn.
Memories like bullets,
They fire at me from a gun,
Cracking the armor yeah.
I swim for brighter days
Despite the absence of sun.
Choking on salt water,
I'm not giving in, I swim.
You gotta swim,
For nights that won't end.
Swim for your families,
Your lovers, your sisters,
And brothers, and friends.
Yeah you gotta swim,
For wars without cause.
Swim for the lost politicians,
Who don't see their
greed is a flaw.
The currents will pull us,
Away from our love.
Just keep your head above.
You gotta swim,
Swim in the dark.
There's no shame in drifting,
Feel the tide shifting
And wait for the spark.
Yeah, you gotta swim,
Don't let yourself sink.
Just find the horizon,
I promise you it's not as
far as you think.
The currents will drag us,
away from our love.
Just keep your head above.
