Let Me Drown
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.
Stretch the bones over my skin
Stretch the skin over my head
I'm going to the holy land
Stretch the marks over my eyes
Burn the candles deep inside
Yeah, you know where I'm coming from
So give up to greed, you don't have to feed me
Yeah, give up to fate, you don't have to need me
So let it go
Won't you let it go?
Won't you let it go?
Won't you let it?
Drown me in you
So slip down the darkness to the mouth
Damn the water, burn the wine
I'm going home for the very last time
So throw it away, you don't have to take me
Yeah, make no mistakes, I'm what you make me
So let it go
Won't you let it go?
Won't you let it go?
Won't you let it?
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in
Drown me in
Oh, drown me in
Yeah, drown me in
Yeah
I see you turn around
And burning down
The feeling starts to sink
I feel the hurt surround me
Please dissolve me
She's resolved to be
So heal my wounds without a trace
And seal my tomb without my face
I'm going to the lonely place
So give up to greed, you don't have to feed me
Yeah, give up to fate, you don't have to need me
So let it go
Won't you let it go?
Won't you let it go?
Won't you let it?
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in you
Drown me in
