Start Swimming

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm waiting for another day

I'm waiting for the clock to reach the six and twelve

I'm waiting for a holiday

I'm waiting for myself

I'm waiting for another day

I'm waiting for the clock to reach the six and twelve

I'm waiting for a holiday

I'm waiting for myself

And all I seem to hear is: stop, stop

I'm catching up on you. Don't leave me behind

I can't see a soul out here, it's dark, dark

I'm catching up on you. And all I wonder is:

Why? (Why do I try to start running)

Why? (What am I running for?)

Do you remember why we started running?

Do you remember why we're running at all?

If I dared I'd choose to swim

But it's safer on the shore

Do you remember why we started running?

Do you remember why we're running at all?

I would die to get away

But I fear to even more

I'm waiting for another day

The last one was so desperately disappointing

I can't seem to focus on what I've done

Or where I've been, I can't see, nobody here

And all I seem to hear is: stop, stop

I'm catching up on you. Don't leave me behind

I can't see a soul out here, it's dark, dark

I'm catching up on you. And all I wonder is:

Why? (Why do I try to start running)

Why? (What am I running for?)

Do you remember why we started running?

Do you remember why we're running at all?

If i dared I'd choose to swim

But it's safer on the shore

Do you remember why we started running?

Do you remember why we're running at all?

I would die to get away

But I fear to even more

I would rather stay here the rest of my life

I would rather stay here the rest of my life

I would rather stay here the rest of my life

Then close my eyes

I would rather stay here the rest of my life

I would rather stay here the rest of my life

I would rather stay here the rest of my life

Then close my eyes and start swimming

I would rather stay here the rest of my life

I would rather stay here the rest of my life

I would rather stay here the rest of my life

Then close my eyes and start swimming

Close my eyes and start swimming

Close my eyes and start swimming
