I'm Dying, I'm Drowning, and I don't know how to Swim (Original, Take 2)

I've recieved several requests to have this song re-recorded due to the terrible static in the last video. This one should be clearer, enjoy!
Please don't mind my vacant expression as I wander around the campus with no obvious direction. I'm running off two hours of sleep, a coffee, and nothing to eat. I'm dying, I'm drowning and I don't know how to ​​swim.
Please don't mind when I break down and cry. It seems to be sporadic, no legitimate reason why. Just throw some chocolate at me and we'll get along just fine because I'm dying, I'm drowning and I don't know how to swim.
I took swim lessons all my life since I was five years old. The teachers all were nice enough, the water wasn't freezing cold. But when I thought I was okay, they threw another stroke my way. There's so much to learn and I haven't got the time.
I thought, "Okay, well I'll just sleep on the weekend," but they tied some bricks around my waist and threw me off the deep end. And when I came back up to breathe they told me that I couldn't leave. So I just decided there's no time for rest, no time for me so
Please don't mind that I don't have it all together. I look for silver lining but I'm still under the weather. I'll take it one day at a time; you'll lie and say I'm just fine, but I'm dying, I'm drowning and I don't know how to swim.
Please don't mind it if I'm about to break your neck; it probably wasn't you but if it's clear that I'm upset just give me room to get myself in line, apologize, and realize I'm dying, I'm drowning and I don't know how to swim.

"That was a terrible song". NO IT WASN'T BE NICE TO YOURSELF!!! This song perfectly captures the endless torturous treadmill that is school!

[@FlibblyPibbles]

I literally keep coming back to this

[@globalance1948]

Very nice Miss Grace Thomas....very nice!!! D

[@ourworld215]

Love it. Random You tube 1st Electro swing, is amazing.. Then this. I really like the upbeat happy music with the sad and funny lyrics. Your genuine expressions are perfect. The major chords and positive tone in your voice with happy expressions juxtaposed against the lyrics creates a sweet contrast. That combination reminds me of Jerry Garcia's , Dreadful Wind and Rain, minus the beautiful facial expressions. Thank you.

[@ThreeDots3]

Came to this channel for electro swing dance, stayed for the songs. Well done, you are amazing!

[@doodle_comments9312]

Wooaah, melodically, this song has a motivating effect on me, so the lyrics seem kinda ironic to me... Can't decide if I should put this in my good time or bad time playlist xD

[@graceannette]

Irony was the intent, glad it came through (: I can see how that would make deciding which playlist a struggle...

[@doodle_comments9312]

Either way, thanks in advance for all the hours I'll spend listening to this song and others that are yet to come x)
Btw, your facial expression is also gold in this video :')

[@cat7502]
