Lyrics

Drowning

[Verse 1]

I never thought I'd be in between her legs

While I'm still thinking 'bout you

And I'm in too deep to pull out now

She's suffering while I feel good

[Refrain]

When I said we should stop

You didn't wanna save me

Now my feet can't touch the ground

I'm going down

[Pre-Chorus]

The closer I get to you, baby

Your waters are rising

While her tears are falling

But I'm so close to you, baby

Either way I'm thinking

I'm sinking, I'm not swimming

[Chorus]

In your waters I'm drowning, drowning, drowning

My head's underwater, her tears overflowing

Please stop me from drowning, drowning, drowning

Her tears won't stop falling, and your body keeps calling

I'll drown in it out for now

[Verse 2]

Tell you the truth, I could get used to this

But I don't wanna suffocate you

'Cause even with two queens in my hands

If I'm playing games, I could still lose

[Refrain]

When I said we should stop

You didn't wanna save me

Now my feet can't touch the ground

I'm going down

[Pre-Chorus]

The closer I get to you, baby

Your waters are rising

While her tears are falling

But I'm so close to you, baby

Either way I'm thinking

I'm sinking, I'm not swimming

[Chorus]

In your waters I'm drowning, drowning, drowning

My head's underwater, her tears overflowing

Please stop me from drowning, drowning, drowning

Her tears won't stop falling, and your body keeps calling

I'll drown it out for now

I'ma drown it out for now, oh

I'll drown it out for now, oh, woah (Drown)

[Pre-Chorus]

The closer I get to you, baby

Your waters are rising

While her tears are falling

But I'm so close to you, baby

Either way I'm thinking

I'm sinking, I'm not swimming

[Chorus]

In your waters I'm drowning, drowning, drowning (Yeah)

My head's underwater, her tears overflowing

Can't stop me from drowning, drowning, drowning (Oh, woah)

Her tears won't stop falling, and your body keeps calling

I'll drown it out for now

[Outro]

Drown, drown, drown (Oh, woah)

Drown, drown, drown

I'm drowning, I'm drowning
