[Verse 1]
In the school yard when I was a kid
I gave everyone my address
Said come on over
And it turns out that nobody did
Swimming alone's how I spent my eighth birthday
And sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water
I never got out of the water even though I did

[Chorus]
Sometimes it feels like everyone’s looking at the surface
And it's not happening on purpose
But they're taking things for granted again

[Verse 2]
I’m learning to write my wrongs
And speak up when I feel like I'm not being listened to
But some story entered my bones
When I was far too young to know not to listen to
What people say
'Cause everybody's feeling the pressure
Of a world that keeps trying to end us everyday

[Chorus]
Sometimes it feels like everyone's looking at the surface
And it's not happening on purpose
But they're taking things for granted again
[Outro]
Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water
I never got out of the water even though I did
Sometimes it feels like I never got out of the water
I never got out of the water even though I did
Sometimes it feels like this world's got nothing for me
Getting blank stares in return for what I give
Sometimes I feel a thousand eyes looking down at the surface
And they’re watching me drown on purpose
Oh, they’re taking things for granted again
