Swim All You Like

[Verse 1]
Swim all you like, eventually you'll have to sink
The anchor tattooed on your side is not as effective as you may think
You say [?] the blood inside your heart
The ghosts that dance and sing around
God forbid you make a sound

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I left the same way
But I can still lead[?]
Despite that so far no one's listening

[Chorus]
Stop and dare not look away
And now is this what will make you happy?
I'm lying just to see you smile

[Verse 2]
Well I've grown used to sleeping through the silence
Old lines coughed in bedroom walls
A blood-soaked blanket on the bedroom floor
Locked up in this madhouse all night long
The ghosts will dance and sing around
And god forbid you make a sound

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And all the [?]
A little sympathy
A [?] answer, can you hear me?

[Chorus]
Stop and dare not look away
And now is this what will make you happy?
I'm lying just to see you smile

Stop and dare not look away
And now is this what will make you happy?
I'm lying just to see you smile

Stop and dare not look away
(And all the [?])
And now is this what will make you happy?
(A little sympathy)
I'm lying just to see you smile
(A [?] answer, can you hear me?)
