Sink or Swim Lyrics
i've heard this all before,
don't waste my time,
dont break my walls,
get out my door.
though you won't see me caving in
let's sell my stuff
and show you what's makin' me spin.
so if you, peel away the skin
if you find that some survive
but they can't always win
i stand out, in the shallow end
you won't see me drown, when I sink or swim
sink or swim
don't spell this out in tears,
don't play those games, or say these names,
and let your fears.
i told you no means no.
you got your chance, you broke my heart,
it's time to go.
so if you, peel away the skin
you'll find that some survive
but they can't always win
and i stand up, in the shallow end
you won't see me down when i sink or swim
you won't see me drown when i sink or swim
it's all better, it's all better
so if you, you peel away the skin,
you'll find that some survive
but they can't always win
just stand up, to the shallow end
you won't see me drown, if i sink or swim
and my love's come to a bitter end
i hope you drown when you sink or swim
I hope you drown when you sink or swim
sink or swim.
you sink or swim
don't waste my time,
dont break my walls,
get out my door.
though you won't see me caving in
let's sell my stuff
and show you what's makin' me spin.
if you find that some survive
but they can't always win
i stand out, in the shallow end
don't play those games, or say these names,
and let your fears.
i told you no means no.
you got your chance, you broke my heart,
it's time to go.
you'll find that some survive
but they can't always win
you won't see me down when i sink or swim
you'll find that some survive
but they can't always win
just stand up, to the shallow end
you won't see me drown, if i sink or swim
I hope you drown when you sink or swim
you sink or swim

Correct lyrics:
I've heard this all before Don't waste my time, don't break my balls, get out my door. You wont see me caving in It's time I stand and show you what's making me spin
So if you, peel away the skin You'll find the strong survivor but they can't always win I'll stand up, to the shallow end You won't see me drown when I sink or swim
Don't spell this out in tears Don't play those games or say these names and live your fears I told you no means no You had your chance, you broke my heart, its time to go
So if you, peel away the skin You'll find the strong survivor but they can't always win I'll stand up, to the shallow end You won't see me drown when I sink or swim You won't see me drown when I sink or swim
So if you, peel away the skin You'll find the strong survivor but they can't always win I'll stand up, to the shallow end You won't see me drown when I sink or swim Our loves come to a bitter end I hope you drown when you sink or swim I hope you drown when you sink or swim Sink or swim You sink or swim
This song to me means winning the battles that people throw at you, and letting them know they can't beat you down
