@DomoDomo365 wow. if you think this song is gay, you are. you actually have to read the lyrics to get what this song is about. This song is beautiful, unlike you. oh and btw: gay means happy or when a person likes the same gender, so tell me how can a song be either of thoes? geeze, and if you don't like a song, you don't have to go and put a rude comment here. You could have easily just paused the music and went to listen to a different song. Grow Up.
@Purpleblues09 Agreed. People can be immature and half the time don't realize, or think before they comment. Its just best to annoy the people who think there funny but saying rude comments, because in the end it just matters if you like it.
I swim for my life. I swim when it hurts. I know the whole world is watching, and I haven't come this far to fall off the earth. the currents might pull me away from my love, but I just keep my head above. I swim for brighter days, despite the absence of sun. I'm not giving in, I swim. I got a swimming scholarship this year, and next year I am going to college and training to be in the Olympics. this song has kept me through along the way, and I couldn't love it anymore.
Hey read, don't laugh at this. Just do it! Start thinking of something you really really want, because this is astonishing. The person who sent this said their wish came true after 10 minutes they read the mail, so i said what the heck! You have been visited by Dr Suess The cat in the hat ,he will grant you one wish, make your wish when the countdown is over. 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 MAKE YOUR WISH! if you send this to 10 videos within the hour, your wish will come true
I dont like this version at all, way way too crowded and all the electronic sounds are awful, should have kept it simpler, like the performance on the daily show, that was good!
yeah I know the beginning is really good. then the part after that kinda kills it then it gets better then worse then better then the song ends and overall it's a good song. but that's just me :D
I love this song, it's becoming my life motto. I hopefully may get a tattoo of the lyrics when I'm allowed, they're so meaningful and beautiful; they speak to me...and I'm fourteen, that's deep. :D

I really like the fact that there is a blank screen. I think it goes well with the song, and you're able to concentrate on the music better. Isn't music what it's all about anyway? I hate people who don't like certain songs (or posts on youtube) just because they don't have cool videos. If the song touches you, it shouldn't matter. Great job.
I actually really like the blank screen, it kind of incorporates the song because we need to swim in the dark to "find the horizon, I promise you it's not as far as you think" :)

This is a beautiful song, every part of it
.
This isn't even my favorite part, but I love it. It's so well-written:
"Through wars without cause, swim for the lost politicians who don't see their greed as a flaw."

I'm getting a tattoo around my ankle that says:
"Don't let yourself sink
Just find the horizon
I promise you it's not as far as you think"
and one on my wrist that says "Swim"
for those days when i'm not able to reach for my ipod to hear Andrew McMahon's amazing message through this song :)
