Damien Jurado - Now You're Swimming lyrics

Now you're swimming It don't even feel right You hate your body You know it shows They're acting crazy Out there in the deep end They're shouting curse words And acting crazy You got a cop for a dad And you don't want any more Off-duty advice now You got a saint in the eye And you don't want any more Guilt-tripping advice now We'll figure it out And they can keep you in the dark Afternoon is your own time Alone time We'll figure it out And then we'll keep you in the dark Afternoon is the wrong time And now you're painting And you don't even feel right You hate the colors And you know they'll bleed They're acting foolish Out there in the darkroom Rolling quarters Going wild You got a cop in your face And you don't want any more Time left alone with him You got a saint for a mom And you know all the ways out The back door and on out They'll figure it out And then they'll keep you in the dark Afternoon is your own time Alone time We'll figure it out And then we'll keep you in the dark Afternoon is the wrong time
