Lyrics
Sinking Swimming Sinking Swimming Sinking Swimming Sinking
Sinking Swimming Sinking Swimming Sinking Swimming Sinking
How come we never realized that we should have let it die?
Is this lie that we’ve created really still alive?
And it’s time to decide whether to be seekers or just hide
So I’ll take one final breath and heave my final sigh
And I’ve said all of my goodbyes and I am ready to die
But sometimes its easier to just revive and survive
Chorus
I can’t shake this phantom limb (ba ba) it’s time to sink or swim (ba ba) (x5)
Another restless night and sleep escapes my grasp
Another song aborted I’m so sick I might collapse
I wish I could pick up my guitar and write a killer riff
But I’m pretty sure my roommates wouldn’t like the sound of it
I'm gonna fly to the top unless I drop like a rock
Can't stop the king of pop
Unless you find five years later waiting tables
In the coffee shop on the vomit mop
I can’t shake this phantom limb so it’s time to sink or swim
Standing here at edge of it I’m pretty sure I want to jump on in
Chorus
(Distinct Beat Change Maybe Introduction New Instrument at Least)
(Solo/Bridge) Restart Elastic Beat
Sinking Swimming Sinking Swimming Sinking Swimming Sinking
Sinking Swimming Sinking Swimming Sinking Swimming Sinking
Sure we’re just treading water here but no one will turn out the light
Said one day that we’d be famous and I intend to be right
We had nothing in the beginning but now we’re making noise
No one wanted to believe but they excused us cause boys would be boys
Well I got my piano so I can sing the blues and I’m already swimming
My only questions why aren’t you
I can’t shake this phantom limb it’s time to sink or swim (x5)
