lyrics

Just a couple weeks back I met this guy who got hit by a bus when he turned 18
In and out of hospital for 30 months but 30 years on he wouldn't change a thing
He said it's easy chasing what might have been
You think it's a nightmare but it's only a dream

Find me upstream
Alone
All my life picking fights with a ghost
Teach me to let go cause I know its harder to breathe
Swimming Upstream

Two broken legs, a head full of stitches and more time to think than you need
But night turns to day and strength stars to grow from acorns to oak trees
You know I think about you
When every wall around me is caving in
It feels like the end of the world but it's only the start of something

Find me upstream
Alone
All my life picking fights with a ghost
Teach me to let go cause I know its harder to breathe
Swimming Upstream
Less fear, more hope
I keep trying to move but I don't
It's so hard to let go but I know it's harder to breathe
Swimming upstream
