Learning to Swim

She says she's trying Feels like she's dying And she can't breathe without pain And she's got demons Oh, lord her demons They've come to take her away She catches waves! Waves of a future The deep end is never the same But if you don't care I'll pretend I don't care my dear! The wave that takes you away Do you know where it goes? Do you know what it's for? You think your feeling something But she's feeling nothing at all! She said "I'm falling to pieces!" I pick them up as we walk down the C-c-corridor She said "I'm sorry to leave here But this present life Can't be my future!" She said "I'm searching for Jesus! If I can't find him down here Then I'll Go up there And kick down the door!" She said "I'm dying of breathing! Cause this present life Can't be my future!" And it got quiet Too fucking quiet! She needs a noise to silence her brain She lays in bed Counts the fan blades that spin While the shadows separate her face She catches waves Waves of a future That is leading us all in despair But if you don't care I guess I don't care my dear The way it takes you away Do you know what it's for? Do you know what it's for? Maybe it means something But to her you are nothing at all! She said She's falling to pieces! I picked them up as we walked down The c-c-corridor! She said "I'm sorry to leave here But this present life can't be my Future!" She said "I'm searching for Jesus! If I can't find him down here Then I'll go up there And kick down the door!" She said "I'm dying of breathing! This present life can't be my future No more!" Do you know what it's for? Do you know what it's for? Maybe it means something But to her you're nothing at all At all! At all! At all! What is it for? What's it for! What is it for? What's it for! What is it for? What is it for? What is it for? What's it for!
