Lyrics
The Drowning Years
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.
These empty years, in sadness repose
What once were joys
Now have become sorrows
I drank them all away
Once, I held hopes, loves, and dreams...
Now they're sunken into the sea
And I've no one left to save me
From drowning eternally
I drank them all away
I drank myself away
