Lyrics Wafia – Treading Water
Text:
Ta-ku:
I remember that day you froze over
You wouldn’t say you were sober
And when I call, you’re never honest
Wafia:
I swore to myself, I’d keep my distance
I’ll do my time, I’ll serve my sentence
Because you’re safe when you miss me
Don’t waste your time trying to fix this
Ta-ku:
It’s like you never let me past skin deep
Wafia:
Don’t trip up on the mess I always leave
Ta-ku:
I’m trying to make the best of what we’ve been
Wafia:
I’m no good for you
Ta-ku:
I’m good for you
Together:
Forgot you were like ice
And I held on too tight
Under my grip you melted away
I felt you change
My touch was like a vice
And strangled out your light
Under my watch you faded away
I got too close again
Wafia:
You’ll waste away while you’re waiting
Because it goes without saying
The ice is so thin, now it’s breaking
Ta-ku:
What could I say to keep you longer?
‘Cause all our days are getting shorter
Now I feel like a foreigner
Miss the days when it warmer
Ta-ku:
It’s like you never let me past skin deep
Wafia:
Don’t trip up on the mess I always leave
Ta-ku:
I’m trying to make the best of what we’ve been
Wafia:
I’m no good for you
Ta-ku:
I’m good for you
Together:
Forgot you were like ice
And I held on too tight
Under my grip you melted away
I felt you change
My touch was like a vice
And strangled out your light
Under my watch you faded away
I got too close again
Got me treading on water
I, I’m goin’ under
Got me treading on water
Stop pulling me under
Got me treading on water
I, I’m goin’ under
Got me treading on water
Stop pulling me under
