Swim

Sink to the bottom Only to wind up belly-up on your bedroom floor Innocuous form I'm in the water half of the day But still, you wait till I'm ready to float And you carry me home Chorus We'll be alright in the morning When the world is on fire we'll be treading in the yard Till I'm ready to float And you carry me home We're dancing outside in the bubble Down by the blood that we shed on the boulevard I know that you carry me home You carry me home to swim Swim, swim, to swim Verse 2 Locked to the love seat Flash me your front teeth It's cherry and bone, cherry and bone You are the athlete I am the astronaut, for thousands of miles I float Still, you carry me home Chorus We'll be alright in the morning When the world is on fire we'll be treading in the yard Till I'm ready to float And you carry me home We're dancing outside in the bubble Down by the blood that we shed on the boulevard I know that you carry me home You carry me home to swim, swim The world is on fire and you carry me And I'm ready to carry me home To swim, swim The world is on fire and I'm ready to float Bridge Goodbye to my mother whose body I lived in Turn blood into water and taught me to swim Chorus We'll be alright in the morning When the world is on fire we'll be treading in the yard Till I'm ready to float And you carry me home We're dancing outside in the bubble Down by the blood that we shed on the boulevard I know that you carry me home You carry me home to swim Swim, swim, to swim Carry me home to swim
