about

my brother was writing a song called "Floating" and he wouldn't let me change some of the words or something so I immediately started writing a song called "Sinking" that was going to be way better anyway, and if that doesn't encapsulate our entire relationship I don't know what does

lyrics

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

could've sworn that we were sinking
on a refugee bamboo raft
could've sworn that we were sinking
on a luxury catamaran

i've been trying to keep you calm
but i can barely move my arms

could've sworn that we were sinking
little bubbles above our breath
could've sworn that we were sinking
we were little kids again

...

then i woke to find that you spilled a glass a water in the bed and we shared a little laugh about how you nearly drowned us both

...

i was happier
thirty thousand fathoms deep
i was happier
in the belly of the sea
