"Treading Water" lyrics

"Treading Water"

Something's in the water
The taste is bittersweet
The nights are getting colder
It's darker in the deep

There are real times
In these blue eyes
Watch as they rise, ooh

Feel like I'm treading water, got my head up
Tryna catch my breath, tryna catch my breath
As the waves get harder, pull me under
Oh, I'm at my death, oh, I'm at my death

Oh, I'm treading water, treading water
Treading water, oh-oh-oh
I'm treading water, treading water
Treading water, oh-oh-oh

Drop into the ocean
The ripple starts to change
I follow the explosion
Like a muffin to a flame

There are lifetimes
In these blue eyes
Watch as they rise, ooh

Feel like I'm treading water, got my head up
Tryna catch my breath, tryna catch my breath
As the waves get harder, pull me under
Oh, I'm at my death, oh, I'm at my death

Oh, I'm treading water, treading water
Treading water, oh-oh-oh
I'm treading water, treading water
Treading water, oh-oh-oh

Treading water, treading water
Treading water, treading water
