Attention! - Swimming With Sharks Lyrics

I had to leave, leave, leave
I was struggling to breathe
To bring something out of nothingness

When I survived in fight or flight
And I was carrying a knife
Suffocating and so restless

When it rained, I was under the water
I remember looking over my shoulder
I was swimming, swimming with sharks
I was swimming, swimming with sharks

But I was rising to a purpose
If I could make it to the surface
I'd be breathing, breathing at last

With my enemies around me
On my knees the ground was sinking
I would pray to get me out alive

And when the sins have been forgiven
But the memories are sinning
I do not regret it, but it stings

When it rained, I was under the water
I remember looking over my shoulder
I was swimming, swimming with sharks
I was swimming, swimming with sharks

But I was rising to a purpose
If I could make it to the surface
I'd be breathing, breathing at last
I'd be breathing, breathing at last
