[Verse 1]
Wandering, weightless
I'm empty, I'm faded
Stumbling, nameless
I'm falling, failing, faithless…
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't fade away to nothing
[Chorus]
If I say a prayer for someone
Who'll say a prayer for me
When I ask myself
If the life I lead's the price I have to pay?
If I gave away the ending
Who'd save the day for me
When I ask myself
If the life I lead's the price I have to pay?
[Verse 2]
Freezing, frameless
I'm tempting fate with
Saying nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't fade away to nothing
I won't fade away to nothing
[Chorus]
If I say a prayer for someone
Who'll say a prayer for me
When I ask myself
If the life I lead's the price I have to pay?
If I gave away the ending
Who'd save the day for me
When I ask myself
If the life I lead's the price I have to pay?
[Bridge]
I'm wandering, I'm weightless
I'm failing, I'm faithless
Descending to madness
I'm taken for granted
I'm wondering and worthless
Deserving, deserted
Defeated, defended
Forgive me, forget it
(Forget it)
[Chorus]
If I say a prayer for someone
Who'll say a prayer for me
When I ask myself
If the life I lead's the price I have to pay?
If I gave away the ending
Who'd save the day for me
When I ask myself
If the life I lead's the price I have to pay?

“DRIFT” is about a momentary lapse in momentum, where everything is still long enough to question where you’re going, where you’ve been and how they are somehow supposed to connect in the middle.
