Sink Or Swim

You throw me in the deep-end, you thought that I couldn't swim
Reached out a fake hand then dropped me in
Throw me to the wolves and I hit the ground running
Watch me lead the pack, yeah, you'll never see us coming
Every time I turn around, you're always there watching me drown again
I'm not perfect but I'm no worthless
But if it's up to me, I'd bet on me, every time (every time)
Drop me to the bottom of the ocean
Fighting for my breath, my lungs are closing
Letting you go is where I begin
It's up to me to sink or swim
Sink or swim
Frozen, baby, my mind's in slow motion
Letting you go is where I begin
It's up to me to sink or swim
Sink or swim
Buried in my own regret, there's a lesson in all of this
When someone steals a part of you, you gotta take it back
Throw you to the wolves and you'll never outrun them
Smile on my face, you'll never see it coming
Every time you turn around, I'll always be watching you fall again
I'm not perfect, but I'm not worthless
But if it's up to me, I'd bet on me, every time (every time)
Drop me to the bottom of the ocean
Fighting for my breath, my lungs are closing
Letting you go is where I begin
It's up to me to sink or swim
Sink or swim
Frozen, baby, my mind's in slow motion
Letting you go is where I begin
It's up to me to sink or swim
Sink or swim
I'm not perfect, but I'm not worthless
But if it's up to me, I'd bet on me, every time (every time)
Drop me to the bottom of the ocean
Fighting for my breath, my lungs are closing
Letting you go is where I begin
It's up to me to sink or swim
Sink or swim
Frozen, baby my mind's in slow motion
Letting you go is where I begin
It's up to me to sink or swim
Sink or swim
Frozen, baby my mind's in slow motion
Letting you go is where I begin
It's up to me to sink or swim
Sink or swim
