[Verse 1]
I guess we’ll chalk it up to another false start
I thought you heard the bell
Had an eager heart
Now I’m pushin’ out of the pool
Soaked and sorry

[Verse 2]
I guess we’ll chalk it up to a slip off the block
The crowd grows impatient
They’re restartin’ the clock
And now I’m pushin’ out of the pool
Soaked and sorry

[Refrain]
How can I muster the motivation
To dive in again inside of me?
Kinda wanna just quit swim team entirely

[Verse 3]
I guess you’ll reference it
Some kind of loss someday
The kind that could be a dream
Floats and fades away
‘Cause now I’m bored in bed, wrestlin’ with reality
[Verse 4]
A temporary escape when the world fell apart
I swore I smelled your skin
Thought I felt your heart
But now I’m bored in bed, wrestlin’ with reality

[Refrain]
How can I tell what’s real or fake?
How much more can I take of this war inside of me?
Kinda hope I just quit dreamin’ entirely

[Bridge]
I remember well the chain-link fence
Water drippin’ off of my chin
How is it now just like then?
I’m still jumpin’ in ahead of the rest
I was just tryin’ to do
Just tryin’ to be
Just tryin’ to love
My best

[Outro]
I guess you’ll reference me
Just another false start
