Swan in the Water - Justin Nozuka

My father tried to save me, he said believe

In the spirit of God, leave me alone

My mother tried to heal me, she said just feel me

Just feel me then leave me alone

My brother tried to scold me, he tried to hold me

To mold me then leave me alone

My sister tried to listen, but she couldn’t understand

It’s not how I stand but where I stand

And you talk and you talk and you talk

And then you walk

And you get what you wanted all along

And then you walk

And then you walk, oil in the water

How come you can’t be with me?

Oil in the fire, I remember how it used to be

Swan in the water, you’re moving so elegantly

And it burns and it burns and it burns

And it burns and it burns

I know World War III tried to convince me, you were shouting

On the radio and TV screen, leave me alone

My angels tried to mess me, constantly test me

And test me and now leave me alone

The devil tried to bless me, confessing the death

And then leave me alone

My sister tried to listen, but she couldn’t understand

It’s not how I stand, but where I stand

And you talk and you talk and you talk

And then you walk

And you get what you wanted all along

And then you walk

And then you walk, oil in the water

How come you can’t be with me?

Oil in the fire, I remember how it used to be

Swan in the water, you’re moving so elegantly

And it burns and it burns and it burns

This world is trying to break me

It’s trying to break me

This world is trying to break me

It’s trying to break me

The world is trying to break me

It’s trying to break me

The world is trying to break me

Trying to break me

This world is trying to break me

It’s trying to break me

This world is trying to break me

Ooh, it’s trying to break me

Ooh, it’s trying to break me
