Inner city sky rise over town at night You pushed me to the top floor So we could see the sights I could tell that you wanted to Jump in the pool, jump in the pool I looked at you I knew you wanted to Jump in the pool, jump in the pool I push out, I breathe in A stillness turning away Don't look back, don't pretend We'll never take control again We're falling beyond the horizon And only the water remains The fear is falling away On the poolside staring into glowing blue Swimsuit issues with my toes Curled in the grooves I could tell that you wanted to Jump in the pool, jump in the pool I looked at you I knew you wanted to Jump in the pool, jump in the pool I push out, I breathe in A stillness turning away Don't look back, don't pretend We'll never take control again And before that we own the horizon And only the water remains The fear is falling away Keep breathing, keep searching, keep holding on Keep breathing, keep living, keep holding on I push out, I breathe in A stillness turning away Don't look back, don't pretend We'll never take control again And before that we own the horizon And only the water remains The fear is falling away
