[Verse 1]
You say you're never loud, but you shout what you're given
Movin' in a space where you doubt what you're livin'
Capabilities, they deceive all the focus
Roamin' through a dream with an unfulfilling motive
Say you're better now but your mouth fills with poison
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't bend
Negotiatin' who's credit is earned in this
[Chorus 1]
I, I fell in
Am I drowning or am I just learning how to swim?
I, I'm sinking
If I push up from the bottom, will I breathe again?
[Post-Chorus 1]
Drowning, am I?
Am I drowning, am I?
Or am I just learning how to swim?
[Verse 2]
Cryin' to a page that you wish you could soak up
Witness your decay, hold it in, then erupt
Where's the restoration of a hand so withered?
Hope you can forget what you let come hither
Say you're better now but your heart's still bitter
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't bend
Negotiatin' who's credit is earned in this
[Chorus 1]
I, I fell in
Am I drowning or am I just learning how to swim?
I, I'm sinking
If I push up from the bottom, will I breathe again?
[Post-Chorus 1]
Drowning, am I?
Am I drowning, am I?
Or am I just learning how to swim?
[Bridge]
I fell in
Am I drowning or am I just learning how to swim?
I'm sinking
I'll just push up from the bottom 'til I breathe again
[Chorus 2]
I, I fell in
Am I drowning or am I just learning how to swim?
I, I'm sinking
I'll just push up from the bottom 'til I breathe again
[Post-Chorus 2]
'Til I breathe again!
'Til I breathe again!
'Til I breathe again!
Or am I, just learning how to swim?

We all encounter this question at time. You can’t tell if you’re barely above the waves; just doggy paddling, gasping every chance you can. Or if you’re absolutely still, floating on your back, letting the density of your state of mind hold you atop the water. Whatever it is, we’ve all been there. A...
