Lyrics
The Drowning Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The bare wall is damp, a layer of mould is covering
every joint
The pipes are leaking, it's dripping onto my ragged
bed
Minutes seem to be days and days are years, so what am
I waiting for? Too many
things have changed, too many words have lost their
sense
The days will be mine when rivers rise
But now I'm stumbling on the edge of our life
The last words to the drowning sun
The light was bright enough to believe
That we could lose ourselves in feelings, but we
failed
The last words to the drowning sun
Today I reached the door with my last ounce of
strength
It was like opening secret gates to another world
The first time I've seen the sun again, since you
passed away
My life without you can't be a life - a waste of time
The days will be mine when rivers rise
But now I'm stumbling on the edge of our life
The last words to the drowning sun
The light was bright enough to believe
That we could lose ourselves in feelings, but we
failed
The last words to the drowning sun
