"Swim To The Buoy (Outside Take)" lyrics

Maybe we were just too scared alone
Compact disc and a flipping phone
Your penmanship was perfect
Cursive in my mind
Waiting on a beach where nobody came
Watch you with your big feet kicking the waves
I'd rather be with friends cooking my brain
Playing video games

And I see you
See you out in the water
Somewhere you're meant to be
And I see you
See you out in the water
Somewhere you're meant to be

See a sliver of light, see the sky divide
And I kept your watch not for telling the time
I get so wrapped up in other people's minds
Could you tell what was on my mind
See the faded light on the distant ships
And I still feel a little emptiness
I thought by this point I'd be stronger than I am

And I see you
See you out in the water
Somewhere you're meant to be
And I see you
See you out in the water
Somewhere you're meant to be

See a sliver of light, see the sky divide
And I kept your watch not for telling the time
I get so wrapped up in other people's minds
Could you tell what was on my mind
See the faded light on the distant ships
And I still feel a little emptiness
I thought by this point I'd be stronger than I am
