Sink Swim

Did a stupid dance on my princess bed
Champagne thoughts running through my head
16, what a dream I'm living in
Then I nearly crashed my car
On La Cienega Boulevard
Fell asleep, been pushing it too hard
If you ain’t failing
You ain't trying
If you ain't failing
You ain’t trying
Swim, sink, sink, swim
Get heart broke, hit rock bottom
Breathe out, breathe in
It's just the way it goes
You're up and you're down
You're low then you're high
You fly, then you fall
You fall, then you fly
And you try a little to stay out the middle
Gotta live before you die
Swim, sink, sink, swim
Out to swap hemispheres
Facing all my biggest fears
About to see if my music
Is cool or just weird
It's cool (ha)
If you ain't failing (you ain’t failing)
You ain’t trying (you ain't trying)
If you ain’t failing
You just lying
Swim, sink, sink, swim
Get heart broke, hit rock bottom
Breathe out, breathe in
It's just the way it goes
You're up and you're down
You’re low then you're high
You fly, then you fall
You fall, then you fly
And you try a little to stay out the middle
Gotta live before you die
Swim, sink, sink, swim
If you ain't failing
You're not trying
If you ain't failing
Why don't you start trying?
If you ain't failing
Let your light be blinding
If you ain't failing
You're just lying
Swim, sink, sink, swim
Get heart broke, hit rock bottom
Breathe out, breathe in
It's just the way it goes
You're up and you're down
You're low then you're high
You fly, then you fall
You fall, then you fly
And you try a little to stay out the middle
Gotta live before you die
Swim, sink, sink, swim
Swim, sink, sink, swim
Try a little to stay out the middle
Gotta live before you die
