Running at the pool

I eat Turkey sandwiches everyday

Not because I want to but they’re just easy to make

I need to get my protein in

If I want my muscles to come in

I like a boy but he only hit a few of my standards

I said that it was fine because I was looking for answers

Like could I be loved, am I able to be someone’s

One

But then I scared him away

I scared myself away as well

I was searching for heaven

But ended up back in hell

I keep running back to my old flames

I’m the only one to blame

So many excuses

So many bruises

And it’s only cause I keep running at the pool

I keep slipping

Now I’m feeling like a fool

I told you I needed distance to refocus

You said “that’s totally cool” with a smiley face

I thought maybe you’d have some more empathy

But that text was all that you sent to me

I was on track till I was distracted by you

I fell to the side

And now I’m drowning in the blue

I keep running back to my old flames

I’m the only one to blame

So many excuses

So many bruises

And it’s only cause I keep running at the pool

I keep slipping

Now I’m feeling like a fool

Life guards out here yelling at me

Ridiculing my personal speed

Walk don’t run

Tripping ain’t fun

Life guards out here yelling at me

Ridiculing my personal speed

I’m just trying to get free

But now I have a nose bleed

(Repeat x3)

I was on track till I was distracted by you

I fell to the side

And now I’m drowning in the blue

I keep running back to my old flames

I’m the only one to blame

So many excuses

So many bruises

And it’s only cause I keep running at the pool

I keep slipping

Now I’m feeling like a fool
