Ever felt like you're just drifting through life, not really vibing with anyone? Joji captures that feeling perfectly here. He's reaching out to someone, hoping they'll break through his emotional barriers ("Water on me"). He doesn't trust easily and isn't a fan of most people, but this person seems to be an exception. The lyrics touch on themes of isolation and yearning for connection, even when it feels like you're swimming against the current ("swimming like Nemo"). It's a raw expression of wanting someone to come into your life and make things a bit more bearable, even if it's just by default.
