lyrics

When I was 13 I lost my faith in God, when I was 16 I found it in a 40 ounce bottle. Getting wasted at the side of a pool at a party I wasn't invited to.

Nobody taught me how to swim. I guess I'll hold my breath again.

With trembling hands I'm trying to catch my fleeting breath, with stuttered words I'm trying to make a bit of sense. So don't shut me up, don't count me out, I've got something to say. Your demons might disappear but they never go away.

Stop me if I go too fast, darling please pour me a drink. Oh god my head fucking hurts and my stomach is sick. So grind your teeth to the floor and get a taste of the soil. You're tossing coins, I'm burning bills at the old wishing well.

Nobody taught me how to swim. I guess I'll lose my faith again.
