lyrics

The night it freezes my fire escape
Rescue worker don’t be late
To my motives I will stick til I die
Let the water run til the clouds roll off the lie
I was born in a red cocoon
How’s the same feeling missing in my own bedroom

Swim through corpses in the night
Breaking through water and leaving the white boy to die

You come freezing like you used to do
It’s all up to you what you wanna do
Gotta get out of the heaven that you used to get stuck to
Fold your body into the parchment and get out of the glue
Your arms, too slender to roll with the wind
Your legs run to your mother, the one who keeps you free from sin

Swim through something if you wanna believe
There’s a better way out of this machine
Learn to swim, you won’t die
The only thing worse than dying is to never try

Learn to swim, you won’t die
