Swimming

 

Swimming

(album: If You Don't Like The Story Write Your Own - 2022)


[Deion Reverie:]
It's okay to feel the way you do
Swimming in a life that they gave you
You drown
But they will never love you like I do
In this ocean
You're all I see

[Witt Lowry:]
You're not a mess, no, you're an empath on a messy earth
Can't understand why somebody as special as you wants to fit in so bad that it hurts
Your worth isn't based off of how much you earn, you say you feel empty the more you consume
Do we blame the flower when it doesn't bloom or blame the terrain it was planted into?
When you walk in a room, everyone stares, you spent the whole morning on makeup and hair
Still all you see are your flaws, you never would see what they see when you look in the mirror
Nobody compares you like nobody else, being trapped in an app feels like living in Hell
See, we live in a world where we're taught that it's better to be anyone else but ourselves, damn
Your feelings aren't real, your friends are all fake, you're tired as fuck, you just need a break
Don't know if you know, the lower your self-esteem goes, the more that these companies make
The more of yourself that you hate, the more that you look to replace, the more you'll be willing to pay
This hole got me stuck in a game that you didn't even realize you were playing, so

[Deion Reverie:]
It's okay to feel the way you do
Swimming in a life that they gave you
You drown
But they will never love you like I do
In this ocean
You're all I see

[Witt Lowry:]
The truth is, you're as beautiful as beautiful gets
Wish you knew your flaws were just a shift in perception away from them being a gift
Does the dopamine hit when you post? Ridic when you know people pick apart all of your pics
You're sick of the comments that say, "Does she even respond?", when you don't, then they call you a bitch
It's just how it is, it's sad, it's Truman, think we forgot what it means to be human
These apps are detrimental to our mental health, so we go buy and have to improve it
They call that improvement, but I digress, I know you're living with a lot of stress
Trying your best to find a line between work and rest, haven't found it yet, damn
They see you were thick in the head, but not what goes on in your head, damn, yeah
Ask you how you are in the sheets, but not why you're not leaving bed, damn, yeah
They sit there and stare at your lips, but don't hear a thing that you said, damn, yeah
They come out the woodwork and then they get mad when you leave 'em on read
I know that you no longer wanna pretend like all the bullshit hasn't taken its toll
You're tired of striving to be what they want you to be when you know you just don't fit the mould
"Sit there and look pretty" is what you were told by someone you used to consider a friend
You ask him, "How am I supposed to feel pretty with all of these hideous thoughts in my head?"
Never saw him again, at first you were hurt that they thought your image was all you were worth
But then you realized you were wasting your time on opinions of people who make you feel worse
You feel like you're cursed, you wanna move on, remove every contact you have in your phone
You realize the more and more people pretend like they love you, the more you feel like you're alone, just know

[Deion Reverie:]
It's okay to feel the way you do
Swimming in a life that they gave you
You drown
But they will never love you like I do
In this ocean
You're all I see

(They will never love you like I do)
They will never love you like I do
(They will never love you like I do)
(You drown)
(They will never love you like I do)
They will never love you like I do
(In this ocean)

done
