Big Tear
[Intro:]
Learn to swim
Swim in the big tear
[Verse 1:]
Everywhere there are lies being spoken
Everywhere there are hearts being broken
They’re all part of the big tear falling down on us
They’re all part of the big tear falling
[Verse 2:]
When I was nine the air started to smell of salt
I looked up and saw the sky fill up with water
A big eye staring down at me ready to wrap me in his tеar
[Chorus:]
I tried to run but that drop would get anyone
(And hеre we are stuck in the tear
But you’ll learn to swim)
I tried to run but that drop would get anyone
(And here we are stuck in the tear
But you’ll learn to swim)
[Verse 3:]
Everywhere I see heads getting older
Everywhere I see minds getting smaller
All is part of the big tear falling down on us
All is part of the big tear falling
[Chorus:]
I tried to run but that drop would get anyone
(One big tear comes floating by)
I tried to run but that drop would get anyone
(And here we are stuck in the tear
But you’ll learn to swim)
I tried to run but that drop would get anyone
(And here we are stuck in the tear
But you’ll learn to swim)
[Bridge:]
Slowly I learned how to swim between the floating limbs there
In the tear I heard hearts breaking every other minute
I had longed for shorelines, looking for some sand to land on
Now I see that shore was fiction, there’s no getting out of floating
[Chorus:]
Ooh, and here we are stuck in the tear but you’ll learn to swim here
And here we are stuck in the tear but you’ll learn to swim here
And here we are stuck in the tear but you’ll learn to swim here
And here we are stuck in the tear but you’ll learn to swim here
But you'll learn to swim here
But you'll learn to swim here
[Outro:]
[Don’t try to run]
