Swim Lyrics

Cover art for Swim lyrics by Madonna

"Let the water wash over you Wash it all over you Swim to the ocean floor So that we can begin again Wash away all our sins Crash to the other shore"

This is one my favorite songs from the first time I heard it and it made me feel hopeful. It is saying choose to swim away from, instead of accepting, the hopelessness all around us. The water washes away (baptises) our past mistakes, so we can forgive ourselves, begin again and change.
