Sinking lyrics
by Eva Rose
[Verse 1]
After 2012, I never felt the same again
Ever since they said the world was gonna end
Post-undergrad, wondering where the time went
Always feeling like everybody's ahead
[Verse 2]
New spot at a fifth-floor walk-up
All the space but I can't get unstuck
Frozen dinners in my empty living room
A subtle feeling that my mom wouldn't approve
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ooo) Where can I go?
(Ooo) With no undertow?
[Chorus]
Why can't I just stand still?
Without thinking
If I don't keep moving
Then I'll just start sinking
Why can't I just stand still?
Without thinking
If I don't keep moving
I just start sinking
[Verse 3]
What if this is when I backslide?
On the verge of booking my flight home
Make it onе-way
Tail between my legs
Tryna prove mysеlf wrong every day
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ooo) How will I know?
(Ooo) How much further to go?
[Chorus]
Why can't I just stand still?
Without thinking
If I don't keep moving
I'll just start sinking
Why can't I just stand still?
Without thinking
If I don't keep moving
I'll just start sinking
(Just start sinking)
(Just start sinking)
(Just start sinking)
(Just start sinking)
[Chorus]
Why can't I just stand still?
Without thinking
If I don't keep moving
Then I'll just start sinking
