Swimming Upstream |
| Well I’ve been living in a dream that I can’t wake up from |
| Swimming up stream I can’t get to the sea |
| Where the fish swim free |
| And staring at a screen that I don’t get much from |
| Staring so long, can’t see wood from the trees |
| Or the birds from the bees |
| And half of the time well it flies right by |
| Like childhood did |
| In the blink of an eye |
| And half of the time, well it goes so slow |
| I sit outside and watch the grass grow |
| Well I’ve been running on a treadmill, legs like lead |
| Will there ever be a needle for this thread |
| I’ve been weaving since I was born? |
| And the papers read and the government said |
| I should stay in bed to stop the virus spread |
| I won’t be leaving for so long |
| Well some nights I feel okay, I close my eyes and I drift away |
| Some nights I just lay and stare at the ceiling |
| Like it’s gonna go somewhere |
| Swimming up stream |
| Swimming up stream |
| Oh and I keep swimming but I go nowhere |
| It’s all the same when I come up for air |
| And I just can’t get there |
| Swimming up stream |
| Swimming up stream |
| Swimming up stream |
| Stream |
