I've been running, running, run
So tell me how I'm gonna get
past this wave to
empty swimming pools
Oh, cause I just wanna be
at the start of
after loving you
I plant my feet
and I clench my teeth
I can't outrun
what's coming after me
So tell me how I'm gonna get
past this wave to
empty swimming pools
But I see a lighthouse
in the distance
calling my name
But I can't get there
'til I go through
all of this pain
There's a glimmer of hope
like an exhale of smoke
in the sky
And sometimes you
drain out all the shit
that used to feel right
Empty swimming pools
I've been running, running, run
So tell me how I'm gonna get
past this wave to
empty swimming pools
Tell me how I'm gonna feel
less secure when I
look at you
So I close my eyes
and just visualize
The greenest grass
on the other side
So tell me how I'm gonna get
past this wave to
empty swimming pools
But I see a lighthouse
in the distance
calling my name
But I can't get there
'til I go through
all of this pain
There's a glimmer of hope
like an exhale of smoke
in the sky
And sometimes you
drain out all the shit
that used to feel right
Empty swimming pools
I've been running, running, run
