Matilda Mann - You Look Like You Can't Swim Lyrics

Matilda Mann Lyrics

"You Look Like You Can't Swim"

I used to be the fish that lives inside a tank
These days I seem to be a morsel made of sand
And I'm just sick of being honest
When honestly I never understand

It seems an awful waste to give me so much space
I never seem to know exactly what's my pace
And I'm just sick of being honest
When honestly I'm just a hopeless case

Dress me up
Tell me how to think
I don't wanna get it wrong
I've been a fish too long
Who can't swim

I'm running on a moving pavement in reverse
My life's a standstill but I fear its getting worse
And I know that I'm overthinking
But I only starting sinking since we met

Dress me up
Tell me how to think
I don't wanna get it wrong
I've been a fish too long
Who can't swim

Somebody told me to just take it day by day
That seems impossible but I thanked them anyway
It seems like everybody's got it
And all I ever do is swim away
