Learning to Swim Lyrics

Pay
We all gotta pay
For what we did wrong
Its gotten real bad

Run
Hard to run
We're making ground
Theres a sharp through the road

I think about you all of the time
I think of you when I'm trying to swim

I think about you all of the time
I think of you when I'm trying to swim

Learning to swim
Learning to swim

Love
Love yourself
With your weapons and tools
To get you through

Shine
To the best that you shine
I'm making ground
Theres a shark through the road
Swim the shark through the road

I think about you all of the time
I think of you when I'm trying to swim

Learning to swim
Learning to swim

Yeah Yeah
Learning to Swim

Yeah Yeah
Learning to Swim

Yeah Yeah
Learning to Swim

Think about you all of the time

I think about you all of the time
I think of you when I'm trying to swim

Yeah Yeah
Learning to Swim

Yeah Yeah
Learning to Swim

Yeah Yeah
Learning to Swim

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
