requiem (au) – treading water lyrics

[intro: kathryn rollins]
treading water
treading water
treading water
treading…

[verse 1: requiem]
do the eggbeater with my legs
treading water, feeling dread
kicking hard to keep up my head
keep on swimming, what they said
sugar spoonful, what they fed
stay content, what they meant
i’d rather stop and sink instead
so over trying to think ahead
perception keepin’ me going
p-ssion keep me flowing
in more ways than one
ink in my pen, and my blood
my love, got me kicking hard
stuck at sea, swim with sharks
don’t look for land or boat
let go control, learn to float

[hook: kathryn rollins]
breathe
think i might sink not swim
but if i can’t leave
maybe i can learn something
treading water
treading water
treading water

[verse 2: requiem]
the legs they cramp up
most couldn’t give a d-mn f-ck
tellin’ me to man up
don’t clam up, amp up
water deep i can’t stand up
boozehound feelin’ like a damp pup
ship with an airhorn jammed shut
need a lighthouse or lamp rub
plug a hole in my d-mn tub
just a puddle, or pool olympic
drowning in a school of fishes
swim up for some o2
ain’t no raft that’ll row you
pacific to the atlantic
relax, embrace the panic
don’t look for land or boat
let go control, learn to float

[hook: kathryn rollins]
breathe
think i might sink not swim
but if i can’t leave
maybe i can learn something
treading water
treading water
treading water
breathe
think i might sink not swim
but if i can’t leave
maybe i can learn something
treading water
treading water
treading water

[outro: kathryn rollins]
treading water
treading water
treading water
treading water
treading water
treading water
treading water
