[Verse 1]
So now I am grown
Still learning words
To not have a mind of your own
Can be so contagious
Fuck following traces
With all of my patience
I'm tying my laces
And heading for changes

[Pre-Hook]
At days they tell us go and
Do exactly what you're told
So in the night we go deep down
To seek the bad and fill some wrongs

[Hook]
Oh, when it's dark and cold out
Kids about to go out
We don't need no grown ups
And I might drown in all these sins
But I taught myself to swim
So I'm drifting through this ocean

[Verse 2]
Letting go, tryna let go
Of all of the things I used to know
Everybody always wanna tell you something
But they know nothing
So I'm with the ones
Those who outrun
Everyone will push you away from what you want
[Pre-Hook]
At days they tell us go and
Do exactly what you're told
So in the night we go deep down
To seek the bad and fill some wrongs

[Hook]
Oh, when it's dark and cold out
Kids about to go out
We don't need no grown ups
And I might drown in all these sins
But I taught myself to swim
So I'm drifting through this ocean

[Bridge]
It's dark and I guess it's pretty cold now
Consciousness is sold out
Messed up by the grown ups
And I don't know where to begin
But I taught myself some things
About drifting through this ocean

[Hook]
Oh, when it's dark and cold out
Kids about to go out
We don't need no grown ups
And I might drown in all these sins
But I taught myself to swim
So I'm drifting through this ocean
[Bridge]
It's dark and I guess it's pretty cold now
Consciousness is sold out
Messed up by the grown ups
And I don't know where to begin
But I taught myself some things
About drifting through this ocean
