Swimming Pool
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.
Breathe in, you're not used to
Tread floors, you don't fall through
Make waves, you crush the simple art
Follow no one, always play the wrong card
Waste days, in foreign places
Shed light, on your better side
Reassure me, that you'll wait for me
Wait for me, as long as it takes
And I'll hold my breath, I'll hold my breath
Between me leaving and the news
We'll dance alone between the trees
We go, the buildings turn to dust
Full of diamonds just for us
You are the shifter of my shape
We're making sense of our escape
We'll dance, we'll blow them all away
We'll blow them all away
Fight fires in your best clothes
Touch skin with your eyes clothes
Chase thunder with the volume down
Pack a suitcase one into the next town
Force quit on your losing streak
Solve a riddle in the magazine, be tongue in cheek.
Tell me that we're still too young
That we're still too young and
I'll hold my tongue.
Between me leaving and the news
We'll dance alone between the trees
We go, the buildings turn to dust
Full of diamonds just for us
You are the shifter of my shape
We're making sense of our escape
We'll dance, we'll blow them all away
We'll blow them all away
I can't dance, I can't dance around you
I'll swim, I'll swim to save you
(x4)
Between me leaving and the news
We'll dance alone between the trees
We go, the buildings turn to dust
Full of diamonds just for us
You are the shifter of my shape
We're making sense of our escape
We'll dance, we'll blow them all away
We'll blow them all away
