My Brother Taught Me How to Swim-Passion Pit
My brother taught me how to swim
We treaded water underneath the ocean's skin
And then he washed away my sins
He held me closer as the tide was coming in
But then why, what could I say
What would it mean
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I need
Just a child, I was waiting
All along he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Gone so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost
My brother taught me how to give
He spilled his love until it stretches too thin
Oh how I wanna be like him
He takes away the weight before your heart gives in
But then why, what could I say
What would it mean
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I need
Just a child, I was waiting
All along he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Gone so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost
I got lost
I got lost
If I love the way my brother loves I got lost
None of it would happen like the way that it was
But then why, what could I say
What would it mean
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I need
Just a child, I was waiting
All along he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Gone so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost
