Lyrics

Drowning Man

Wondered what I would find

Picking through the things you left behind

Watch your winning hand unfold

That was so many years ago

Listen for your favourite song

Waiting for the rest to sing along

Patience bleeding tall and far

Waiting for the perfect place to start

Waiting watching the world go by

And I'm wishing it wasn’t a wasted time

I'm waiting watching the world go by

I'm wishing it wasn’t a wasted

Wasted time

Turn into a drowning man

Get through of this the best you can

Secrets that were kept from me

Turned into the truths I can't believe

Waiting watching the world go by

Wishing it wasn't a wasted time

Waiting watching the world go by

Wishing it wasn't a wasted

Wasted

Yeah

Go, go, go, go, go

Wondered what I would find

Picking through the things you left behind

Watch your winning hand unfold

That was so many years ago

Waiting watching the world go by

And I'm wishing it wasn't a wasted time

I'm waiting watching the world go by

I'm wishing it wasn’t a wasted

Wasted time
