lyrics

I went with my mom every day for her swim
And to her water was just a tool to stay fit
But I saw my reflection for the first time in it
So while my mother swam, I began to tune in

And there I was when something sent a ripple
I discovered my body could
So I mapped out every contour of my figure
There is water in the blood

That’s where I learned to love
As a thing that’s displaced
When I left it would let me
And regain its shape
But I’m not the water
So easily healed
And the holes my friends leave
Stay when they’ve disappeared

And there you were unwooed by your reflection
You were drawn to the lifeguard’s throat
I didn’t have the words to draw affection
But I cried the whole way home

I saw it coming when I left the apartment
They caught me crying in the corner of the walk-in
Spent my money even though I tried to save it
It’s a game, but it still gets old

Spent a month just flirting with this meathead
It’s all a bust, his heart is promised to a dead kid
I do my makeup and I jockey to be trusted
20 years and the trail went cold
