Lifted

I throw myself at every hook, there is no need to bait me

Don't like the pretty ones, I only fall for girls who hate me

I was so scared to grip the handle that the handle gripped my throat

And I've been tiptoeing so carefully that now I've missed the boat

Everyone else became a stranger and they're waving their goodbyes 

Saying a boat won't come for anyone who never even tries

But I've been trying, I've been trying so hard

I've been paddling for the death of me but I have never gotten very far

I'm being pulled towards the bottom when I try to swim across

'Cause I am lifted by the things I have
