Swim

Sink to the bottom Only to wind up belly-up On your bedroom floor Innocuous form I'm underwater Half of the day, but still You wade 'til I'm ready to float And carry me home We'll be alright in the morning When the world is on fire, we'll be treading In the yard 'til I'm ready to float And you carry me home And we're dancing outside in the purple dark By the blood that we shed on the boulevard I know that you'll carry me home You carry me home To swim Swim Swim To swim Locked to the love seat Flash me your front teeth It's cherry and bone Cherry and bone You are the athlete I am the astronaut For thousands of miles I float Still, you carry me home We'll be alright in the morning When the world is on fire, we'll be treading In the yard 'til I'm ready to float And you carry me home And we're dancing outside in the purple dark By the blood that we shed on the boulevard I know that you'll carry me home You carry me home To swim Swim (the world is on fire) Carry me (and I'm ready to float) Carry me home To swim Swim (the world is on fire) Swim Ooh (and I'm ready to float) Goodbye to my mother Whose body I lived in Turned blooded into water And taught me to swim We'll be alright in the morning When the world is on fire, we'll be treading In the yard 'til I'm ready to float And you carry me home (home) And we're dancing outside in the purple dark By the blood that we shed on the boulevard I know that you'll carry me home And you carry me home (home) To swim Swim To swim Carry me home To swim
