This Boy Can`t Swim Lyrics

This Boy Can`t Swim lyrics

This boy can't swim 

 He's wearing too many skins 

 I hope he sinks 

 Then he'll forget everything

 

 Dreamt up the lies that would hold it together 

 Then realised those he lied to were cleverer 

 Left at the sides they have long since rejoined him 

 Back in the fold, thick as thieves 

 They will weigh him down

 

 This boy can't swim 

 He's carrying too many sins 

 I hope he sinks 

 'Til he forgets everything 

 

 Dreamt up the lies that would hold it together 

 Then realised those he lied to were cleverer 

 Left at the sides they have long since rejoined him 

 Back in the fold, good as gold 

 Who can blame them?

 

 Dreamt up the lies that would hold it together 

 Then realised those he lied to were cleverer 

 Left at the sides they have long since rejoined him 

 Back in the fold, thick as thieves 

 They will weigh him down 

 

 This boy is feeling so right

 He just can't swim

 This boy is feeling so fine

 He just can't swim

 Don't try to be someone kind

 This boy can't swim
