Dancing around in this parkade alone
And it feels weird cause nothing feels more like my home
I followed my dreams
And I hit a dead end
And it hurts cause i thought
That I was my best friend
Tip toe tip toe hear the echo
I bring my toes to the edge
Just like they do on the swimming team
I can't keep drowning in my head
Oh backstroke backstroke uh-huh
Can I go back to when I was young
If I knew the things that I know now
I'd find a way to change this all somehow
But I never was much good on the swimming team
Oh I'm dancing around
And I can't feel my face
I'm confined by these walls
Soon I'll have so much space
Cause I followed my dreams
Til I ran out of breath
They told me sink or swim
Maybe sinking is best
Oh backstroke backstroke uh-huh
Can I go back to when I was young
If I knew the things that I know now
I'd find a way to change this all somehow
But I never was much good on the swimming team
Backstroke backstroke uh-huh
Can I go back to when I was young
If I knew the things that I know now
I'd find a way to change this all somehow
But I never was much good on the swimming team
