Treading Water Lyrics

I said that I was fine

But I was too damn cold to cry

So I went inside and I closed my ears

So I could hear what you've been saying for years

Call me a masochist. I'll swim like it's fatal

Knowing it's the last time makes the Atlantic painful

I can't say bye today. Let me tread water

'Cause if it's all the same to you

I'd rather drown a little slower while we can

And it hurts to be the last

To hear that you're not planning on coming back

You used to make me smile

So I'll bite down

'Till the curtain calls without a doubt

Call me a masochist. I'll swim like it's fatal

Knowing it's the last time makes the Atlantic painful

I can't say bye today. Let me tread water

'Cause if it's all the same to you

I'd rather drown a little slower while we can

Slow down when you leave

There's no need to rush through the rest of the week

Slow down when you go

With each hour it gets harder to breathe

Call me a masochist. I'll swim like it's fatal

Knowing it's the last time makes the Atlantic painful

I can't say bye today. Let me tread water

'Cause if it's all the same to you

I'd rather drown a little slower while we can
