Lyrics

Drown Me Slowly

[Verse 1]

I've got a will this time, I don't care what you say

I've got a feeling this will all go away

It's in the wind this time, it's in the southern sky

I can't walk on water yet won't even try

[Chorus 1]

Drown me slowly, enclose me

Drown me slowly alright

Drown me slowly, enfold me

Drown me slowly

[Verse 2]

All that I took with me was a bad taste in my mouth

Went all around the world just couldn't spit it out

Just like ground zero was the surface of the sun

That's a sickness, I can't fix it, not all at once

[Chorus 1]

Drown me slowly, enclose me

Drown me slowly alright

Drown me slowly, enfold me

Drown me slowly

[Chorus 2]

Don't let them take you down

You'll leave a better world than you found

Don't let them take you down

You'll leave a better world than you found

[Bridge]

Don't let them take you down

Don't let them take you down

Don't let them take you down

Don't let them take you down

[Chorus 1]

Drown me slowly, enclose me

Drown me slowly, alright

Drown me slowly, enfold me

Drown me slowly

[Outro]

Drown me slowly
