[Verse 1]
I'm missing people I've never met
There's things in this town I'd rather forget
But I just keep on moving
There's no point in losing
I just keep refusing
Oh, I just keep on proving
Nothing is quite true when
Everything is fluid

[Chorus]
I'm treading muddy waters
I am not what you wanted
I've been through this before
I'm treading muddy waters
I am not what you wanted
I've been through this before (Before)

[Verse 2]
It's always easy the first way around
I told you I'd never let you down
You don't remember when it hurts
I told you somehow we'll make it work

[Bridge]
But it's all on the surface, it don't hurt anymore
It's all on the surface, it don't hurt anymore
It's all on the surface, it don't hurt anymore
Hurt anymore
It's all on the surface, it don't hurt anymore
I've been talking to you, skipping rocks by the shore
Am I the perfect picture that you wanted before?
I'm not quite sure
[Chorus]
I'm treading muddy waters
I am not what you wanted
I've been through this before (Before)
I'm treading muddy waters
I am not what you wanted
I've been through this before (Before)

[Outro]
It's all on the surface, it don't hurt anymore
I've been talking to you, skipping rocks by the shore
Am I the perfect picture that you wanted before?
I'm not quite sure
It's all on the surface, it don't hurt anymore
I've been talking to you, skipping rocks by the shore
Am I the perfect picture that you wanted before?
I'm not quite sure
