emily kinney - false start lyrics
[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
