Life to me is like taking a swim, No matter how calm or peaceful the water looks, Dangers hide in the current. Life will pull you under, Sinking deeper into the waves that crash. You kick hard fighting the water, desperately you try and grap hold of anything. You're running out of air and time. So you latch on to the person that isn't submerged. You grab hard, pull hard, But instead of bringing yourself up, You just pulled someone down. And as you sink slowly to the bottom, You regret what you did. But you can't fix it now, It's far to late. Because life is like taking a swim.

Taking a swim
Life to me is like taking a swim, No matter how calm or peaceful the water looks, Dangers hide in the current. Life will pull you under, Sinking deeper into the waves that crash. You kick hard fighting the water, desperately you try and grap hold of anything. You're running out of air and time. So you latch on to the person that isn't submerged. You grab hard, pull hard, But instead of bringing yourself up, You just pulled someone down. And as you sink slowly to the bottom, You regret what you did. But you can't fix it now, It's far to late. Because life is like taking a swim.
