Swan In the Water

                                  Father tried to save me 

He said believe in the spirit of god 

Leave me alone 

My mother tried to heal me 

She said just feel me, just feel me 

Now leave me alone 

My brother tried to scold me 

He tried to hold me, to mold me 

Now leave me alone 



My sister tried to listen 

But she couldn't understand 

It's not how I stand, but where I stand 



And you talk 

And you talk 

And you talk 

And then you walk 

And you get what you wanted all along 

And then you walk 



And then you walk oil in the water 

How come you can't be with me? 

Oil in the fire 

I remember how it used to be 

Swan in the water, 

You're moving so elegantly 



And it burns 

And it burns 

And it burns 

And it burns 

And it burns 



He tired to convince me 

It was shouting on the radio and TV screen 

Leave me alone 

My angels tried to mess me 

Constantly testing and testing me 

Now leave me alone 

The devil tried to bless me, 

Confessing the debt 

Leave me alone 



My sister tried to listen 

But she couldn't understand 

It's not how I stand, but where I stand 



And you talk 

And you talk 

And you talk 

And then you walk 

And you get what you wanted all along 

And then you walk 



And then you walk oil in the water 

How come you can't be with me? 

Oil in the fire 

I remember how it used to be 

Swan in the water, 

You're moving so elegantly 



And it burns 

And it burns 

And it burns 

And it burns 

And it burns



The world is trying to break me, trying to break me, 

This world is trying to break me 

Awww ohhhh I don't want to wait
