Drowning For Now
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.
In this water's no reflection
I brace myself for what I see
Now the calm breaks around me and I'm standing face to face
As a bright light surrounds me with a cold embrace
I'll try and break the grasp of the storm raging within
You're drowning
Don't you pretend (that you're not shaking)
That this isn't real
Don't you regret (your reflection is fading)
The eyes that made you feel
And right before it hits the shore
My struggle begins
My limbs grow weak as I'm treading, defending
My lungs are filling, I've lost the feeling, I'm descending
My eyes swell shut and I can see through memories
Gently fading just release me, please release me
You're drowning
Don't you pretend (that you're not shaking)
That this isn't real
Don't you regret (your reflection is fading)
The eyes that made you feel
Now above me falling
Cold sweat runs down my face
My finger tips go numb
As I hold onto this place
So I close my eyes
And I collapse to my knees
It all comes over me
As the wind blows through the trees
In this water's no reflection
So I brace myself
And I cannot pretend
That these eyes they made you feel
Now I know what is real
And I know why I'm shaking
I'm alone in this struggle
In this world that I'm making
Don't you pretend
That this isn't real
Don't you pretend (that your not shaking)
That this isn't real
Don't you regret (your reflection is fading)
The eyes that made you feel
Now I'm letting go and I'm coming home
