Taking Things For Granted

In the schoolyard when I was a kid

I gave everyone my address, said, "Come on over," and it

Turned out that nobody did

Swimming alone's how I spent my eighth birthday and

Sometimes, it feels like I never got out of the water, I

Never got out of the water, even though I did

Sometimes, it feels like everyone's looking at the surface, and

It's not happening on purpose, but

they're taking things for granted again

I'm learning to write my wrongs (to write my wrongs)

And speak up when I feel like I'm not being listened to

Some story entered my bones

When I was far too young to know not to listen to

What people say 'cause everybody's feeling the pressure of

A world that is trying to end us every day

Sometimes, it feels like everyone's looking at the surface, and

It's not happening on purpose, but

They're taking things for granted again

Sometimes, it feels like I never got out of the water, I

Never got out of the water, even though I did

Sometimes, it feels like I never got out of the water, I

Never got out of the water, even though I did

Sometimes, it feels like this world's got nothing for me

Getting blank stares in return for what I give

Sometimes, I feel a thousand eyes looking down at the surface, and

They're watching me drown on purpose, oh

They're taking things for granted again
