"**Swimming Pool**" is an unreleased song by American singer-songwriter Slayyyter.

The original version was released on November 28th, 2017, it was Slayyyter's first release under the stage name *Slater*.

The song was repurposed for Slayyyter's *self-titled debut mixtape* and sophomore album, *Troubled Paradise*, however, the song was scrapped from both projects.

## Background

The song was originally writen and recorded during Slayyyter's SoundCloud days, when she went under the name "Slater".

On October 23rd, 2018, Slayyyter stated that "Swimming Pool" would be on her debut mixtape when asked by a fan to release the song. On November 5th, 2018, Glitchmood unveiled the official cover art alongside the covers for all of her singles that had been released at the time.

In February of 2019, Slayyyter shared snippets of "Celebrity" and the reworked version of "Swimming Pool".

Around late June of 2019, Slayyyter had posted the tracklist for the mixtape on Twitter, however, she then immediately deleted it right after; it confirmed that the song had been scrapped from the mixtape. On August 15th, 2019, when a fan tweeted about the song, Slayyyter confirmed it would be a part of the tracklist of her sophomore mixtape. This never came to be.

The final version, produced by Boy Sim, leaked on December 29th, 2023.

## Lyrics

* Demo
* Reworked Version

**[Verse 1]**

Hit me up at midnight

I wanna see you again (don't tell your girlfriend)

We can watch the starlights

Don’t bring a friend ([?] you)

**[Pre-Chorus 1]**

I've got a question, you've got the answer

Do you wanna go swimming now? (Now)

You be the captain, I'll be the lantern baby

Let's build our own house (our own house)

Underwater now

**[Chorus]**

Baby dive into me

Get in my heart and swim around

Live in a fantasy

You are the one who holds me down

Baby let go of me

I feel like I'm about to drown

In your swimming pool

Baby dive into me

Get in my heart and swim around

Live in a fantasy

You are the one who holds me down

Baby let go of me

I feel like I'm about to drown

In your swimming pool

**[Post-Chorus]**

Baby I don't wanna sleep at night

I just wanna say you're mine

I don't wanna say goodnight

Baby I don't wanna pick a fight

I just wanna say you're mine

Say you're mine

**[Verse 2]**

Oh, your eyes are so blue

I wanna swim again

And again, and again, and

Wanna get to know you

You could be my best friend

My best friend, oh

**[Pre-Chorus 2]**

I'm just hoping that you might know [?] (down, down)

I'll be your girl and we'll drive real far, oh

Do you wanna get out of town?

Out of town

**[Chorus]**

Baby dive into me

Get in my heart and swim around

Live in a fantasy

You are the one who holds me down

Baby let go of me

I feel like I'm about to drown

In your swimming pool

Baby dive into me

Get in my heart and swim around

Live in a fantasy

You are the one who holds me down

Baby let go of me

I feel like I'm about to drown

In your swimming pool

**[Outro]**

Swimming pool

Swimming pool

Swimming pool

Swimming

Swimming

**[Snippet]**

Hit me up at midnight

I wanna see you again

(Yeah)
