[Verse 1]
I can barely breath
I can barely breath
In the right bright light
Of some mid rise town
I can barely breath
I can barely breath
In the right bright light
Of some mid rise town
[Chorus 1]
I can barely see (In the right bright light)
I can barely see (In the right bright light)
In the right bright light (In the right bright light)
Of some mid rise town (In the right bright light)
I can barely swim (In the right bright light)
I can barely swim (In the right bright light)
In the right bright light (In the right bright light)
I think I’m gonna drown
[Post-Chorus]
(In the right bright light)
(In the right bright light)
(In the right bright light)
(In the right bright light)
[Verse 2]
I can barely walk
I can barely walk
In the right bright light
Of some mid rise town
I can barely walk
I can barely walk
In the right bright light
Of some mid rise town
[Chorus 2]
I can barely think (In the right bright light)
I can barely think (In the right bright light)
In the right bright light (In the right bright light)
Of some mid rise town (In the right bright light)
I can barely sink (In the right bright light)
I can barely sink (In the right bright light)
In the right bright light (In the right bright light)
I think I’m gonna drown

[Outro]
In the right bright light
Of some mid rise town
In the right bright light
Of some mid rise town
In the right bright light
Of some mid rise town
In the right bright light
Of some mid rise town
In the right bright light
I think I’m gonna drown
