At the YMCA swimming pool
I was learning how keep my cool
In water deeper than my head
Just started to get a grip
Listening to the muted screams underneath
I was beginning to be at peace
But I knew it wasn’t going to stay this way
To pass the class I had to play
The diving game like all the other kids
From way up there it looked mile down
My knees were locking I was crying now
It doesn’t help that they’re cheering me on
I couldn’t jump I was wasting time
So the teacher told me they'll make up my mind
Or they'll have to drop me in
My heart was beating faster than I thought it could
My legs quit working when they really should
Fear has a funny way of digging in
My arms start flailing like a cat in the tub
I couldn’t figure out which way was up
I think this failure is sinking in
I think my failures are sinking in
Years went by avoiding anything deep
Diving lessons never worked on me
But I think it’s time to try again
My pal said that he could give me a hand
We’ll take it slow we're not far from land
We’ll have a lifejacket just in case I start freaking out
But I lost track of my peaceful mind
I was grabbing on to anything I could find
I almost drown my friend who was just trying to help me swim
My heart was beating faster than I thought it could
My legs quit working when they really should
Fear has a funny way of digging in
My arms start flailing like a cat in the tub
I couldn’t figure out which way was up
I think this failure is sinking in
I think my failures are sinking in
