You'll Have To Swim Lyrics & Chords By Clann Zú

Early one morning as I went walking down by the filthy canal
One hundred skull angels came crashing around me, their wings all set to flames
Crying out for sanctuary from all that they had seen
I said: How can I help you myself, I've been burning here for 35 years?

Walk on, soul's gone, sailing seas of heartache
Float on, boat's gone, you'll have to swim all the way

And so I live a lonely life
There is no one by my side
There is nothing left down here for me

And I would never change a single fucking thing
Despite the fact I know the brutal vicious end
I still would have kissed you that day

I'll watch you burn

And so I keep walking down by the canal that never ends
Too many people are still breathing and I'm a coward for not ending them

Walk on, soul's gone, sailing seas of heartache
Float on, boat's gone, you'll have to swim all the way
