lyrics

(Adam)
And I've been swimming upstream,
Another heart attack,
A cardiac,
A heart-felt getaway

And if my hand warm up
From the fire in your eyes
I will never compromise
All I left behind

The piece of me that quit,
A heart so bold, but thick,
A weathered path, too lost to follow it

But maybe I'll catch you on the fallback,
A trust fall to get those years back,
And the words we speak,
In the knees, I'm weak,
At the broken promise

(Ethan)
And we buried the body of water that I failed to float in,
The story that was written on the shelf closed by bookends,
The bridge that broke halfway was just my demolition,
Reflections reflect backwards,
Like how my life's been

(All)
Cause I've been swimming upstream (I can promise),
Another heart attack (I'm only human),
A cardiac (I can promise),
A heart-felt getaway (I'm only human)
And I've been swimming upstream (I can promise),
Another heart attack (I'm only human),
A cardiac (I can promise),
A heart-felt getaway (I'm only human)

(Tom)
I can promise I'm only human
I can promise I'm only human
