Hopeless and I hope you don't mind.

The ocean is vast

And I'm tired

Of swimming

I learned how to swim on my own

But don't worry because I won't

Forget can't forget

The swimsuit I'm wearing came from you

-- And I'm grateful

But my legs are tired

And it's getting harder

To stop myself from drowning
