lyrics

I don't want to go swimming with you
I know you're going to take me under.

I can't relate to you
And I won't be so exposed to someone I cannot relate to
The water sings with you
And the stinging in my wounds is something I cannot get used to

I won't enter the ocean with you
I know you're going to kick me open.

I know that five leagues down there's life I've never seen
But anything that smells my fear will notice me

I can't compare to you
And I won't compare myself to someone I cannot compare to.
The water begs me to.
But I won't indulge the curse as long as I am too aware to.

If there's a sunken city calling to your mind
You better go yourself and leave me high and dry.

I don't want to go swimming with you.
I know you're going to take me under.
