Lyrics

Drowned

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.

There are men high up there fishing,

Haven't seen quite enough of the world,

I ain't seen a sign of my heroes,

And I'm still diving down for pearls.

Let me flow into the ocean,

Let me get back to the sea.

Let me be stormy and let me be calm,

Let the tide in, and set me free.

I'm flowing under bridges,

Then flying through the sky,

I'm travelling down cold metal

Just a tear in baby's eye.

Let me flow into the ocean

Let me get back to the sea

Let me be stormy and let me be calm

Let the tide in, rush over me.

I am not the actor

This can't be the scene

But I am in the water,

As far as I can see...

I'm remembering distant memories

Recalling other names.

Rippling over canyons,

And boiling in the train.

Let me etc.
