Tread Water Songtext
von All Time Low feat. Ruston Kelly

How long can we tread water?
How long can we stay afloat?

You love me like a broken record
Skipping through your favorite verse
You′re dancing onto something better
Somebody that knows your worth
I'm just an echo
Yeah, I′m just a wave

How long can we tread water?
How long can we stay 'float?
You want to swim, you gotta learn to let go
'Cause if you hold me any longer, yeah, you know
We′ll sink like a stone
We′ll sink like a stone

I never meant to break that promise
I never meant to let you down
You thought there was something different
It's funny how it all played out


I was your lifeboat
But I capsized in your waves
Crashing

How long can we tread water?
How long can we stay ′float?
You wanna swim
You gotta learn to let go
'Cause if you hold me any longer
Yeah, you know
We′ll sink like a stone

Now nothing I can say is gonna change the way it was
But I can't wash away the memory of us
And while the search and rescue′s circling above
I'd give you the last breath of air from my lungs

How long can we tread water?
How long can we stay afloat?
You wanna swim, you gotta learn to let go
'Cause if you hold me any longer, yeah, you know
If you hold me any longer, yeah, you know
We′ll sink like a stone
We′ll sink like a stone
