ARRIVALS.

It has started
Can't be stopped, call the fairy mantle, cast me up
Send me, send me, over the ocean I'll find you
Not the radio, not today, there is nothing left
You can say, just get me, get me, over the ocean
I'll find you

Close your eyes baby, close your eyes sunshine
Wait for one more sunrise, then I'm on, I'm on

Feel the rumbling through the chair
Fell the future in, in the end
Fly me, fly me, over the ocean I'll see you
And we're hurrying, and we wait, now we're tumbling
To the gate, send me clearly, over the ocean to find you

Just this one last sunrise and 
I'm home.

SWIM.

You've gotta swim, swim for your life
Swim for the music that saves you
When you're not so sure you'll survive

You gotta swim and swim when it hurts
Then whole world is watching
You haven't come this far to fall off the earth

The currents will pull you away from your love
Just keep your bead above

I found a tidal wave begging to tear down the daen
Memories like bullets, they fired at me from a gun
Crack in the armor, yeah

I swim for brighter days despite the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in, I swim

You gotta swim for nights that won't end
Swim for your family as your lovers, your sisters
And brothers, and friends

Yeah, you gotta swim through wars without cause 
Swim for the lost politicians
Who don't see their greed as a flaw

The currents will pull us away from our love
Just keep your head above 

I found a tidal wave begging to tear down the dawn
Memories like bullets, they fired at me from a gun
A crack in the armor

I swim for brighter days despite the absence of sun
Choking on salt water
I'm not giving in, well, I'm not giving in, I swim

You gotta swim, swim in the dark
There's no shame in drifting
Feel the tide shifting and wait for the spark

Yeah, you gotta swim, don't let yourself sink
Just find the horizon
I promise you, it's not as far as you think

The currents will drag us away from our love
Just keep your head above, swim
Just keep your head above, swim, swim
Just keep your head above, swim.

-Jack's Mannequin "Swim"

FALLING.

I've fallen out of favor and I've fallen from grace
Fallen out of trees and I've fallen on my face
Fallen out of taxis, out of windows too
Fell in your opinion when I fell in love with you

Sometimes I wish for falling, wish for the release
Wish for falling through the air to give me some relief
Because falling's not the problem, when I'm falling I'm at peace
It's only when I hit the ground that causes so much grief

This is a song for a scribbled-down name
And my love keeps writing again and a gain
This is a song for a scribbled-down name 
And my love keeps writing again and again
And again and again and again and againg

I dance with myself, I drunk myself down
Found people to love, left people to drown
I'm not scared to jump, I am not scared to fall
If there was nowhere to land I wouln't be scared at all
At all
At all

Fall
Fall

Sometimes I wish for falling, wish for the release
Wish for falling through the air to give me some relief
Because falling's not the problem, when I'm falling I'm at peace
It's only when I hit the ground that causes all the grief.
