Can't Swim

Right Choice

Can't Swim


I feel it now and it won't stop
Take me back to the place where we first start
(Lie awake thinking, bad thoughts keep creeping)
I'm so ashamed of that one night
Put your hands on my eyes just to block the light
(Hiding in the seams)

You call me up on the phone
And you tell me you're leaving
What can I take to stop from feeling?

You call me up on the phone
(No, I'm not the right choice)
And you tell me you're leaving
(I gave you nothing that you wanted)
What can I take to stop from feeling?
(I gave you nothing that you wanted)

A sea in my path that I can't swim
All the strength that we had starts to wear thin
(Falling out of grace, memories are misplaced)
Time takes a toll as we both know
Trampled on, broken down, nothing left to show
(Regrets all sink in, underneath my skin)

You call me up on the phone
And you tell me you're leaving
(I gave you nothing that you wanted)
What can I take to stop from feeling?

You call me up on the phone
(No, I'm not the right choice)
And you tell me you're leaving
(I gave you nothing that you wanted)
What can I take to stop from feeling?
(I gave you nothing that you wanted)

I gave you nothing that you wanted
I gave you nothing that you wanted
No, I'm not the right choice

Are my hands too weak to break
The ties you made won't go away
I can't find the words to make you stay
Are there some who made it through
Without a scratch, without a bruise?
Let's make a toast to ones who ran away

You call me up on the phone
And you tell me you're leaving
What can I do to show I need you?

You call me up on the phone
(No, I'm not the right choice)
And you tell me you're leaving
(I gave you nothing that you wanted)
What can I take to stop from feeling?
(I gave you nothing that you wanted)

I gave you nothing that you wanted
I gave you nothing that you wanted
No, I'm not the right choice
