lyrics

I swam the absurd waters
The incongruity of the human condition
To get to you

Helplessly fighting the hour glass
Striving and seeking without much to pass
I came up for air
And sank back

Dipped like a hand through smoke and ash,
Reaching through depth but only grasping

There's nothing but cold air
Swimming in circles
Swimming in circles

And if I could cry a thousand times
Flood and drown again in it
I would to get it
To get to it

And if I could die only knowing it
I could die holding it
All i do i do just to hold it
And all that I do i don't repent
I just sink back

Dipped like a hand through smoke and ash
Reaching through depth but only grasping...

There's nothing but cold air
Swimming in circles
Swimming in circles
