I take a hammer to the walls around it
In every bar along Lyndale Avenue
Matt makes his murderous demand, foreign films
But it's all I have to believe in
I'll swim backwards
Kate claims she can't depend on me for anything and I agree
Liz likes to liquor up my thoughts from the C.C. Club to the Triple Rock
It's crystal clear, I reach for the bottle and disappear
But it's all I have to believe in
I'll swim backwards
Our hell ends every weekend
I'll sink the ship and drag us both down
I'll swim backwards
But it's all I have to believe in
Our hell ends every weekend
I'll swim alone the long goodbye
You better open the door before
I cannot let you inside my cell for fear
But it's all I have to believe in
I'll swim backwards
Our hell ends every weekend
I take a stand and it's all uphill from here, at least I hope so
I take a hammer to the walls around it
You better open the door before
I'll sink the ship and drag us both down
There's no escape from the chorus of people screaming
Frank fails to see the humor in my sad attempts at break dancing
Our hell ends every weekend
I'll swim backwards
Our hell ends every weekend
Our hell ends every weekend
I cannot let you inside my cell for fear
I'll swim backwards
I'll swim backwards
But it's all I have to believe in
But it's all I have to believe in
I cannot let you inside my cell for fear
