[Intro]
Don't let me drown
Don't let me drown
[Verse 1]
Yeah
Baby, I'm focusing on changing
But something inside me is holding me back
I'm finding my answers inside of this 80 proof
Maybe I'm stuck looking back in the past
And its hurts until you get involved
I don't wanna open up till I drink it all
When I feel like I'm depressed I just burn it off
Late nights when I'm numb I'll be better off
Better off
I'm trying to run but you run in my family
When I fill this cups when I'm feeling less empty
I let you destroy everything that I touch
And when no-ones around I drink till I envy the people that I love the most
Kinda fucked but I'm sorry that's how it goes
I just wish I was normal and you should know
You're the reason I want to be left alone, shit
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I'm way past the point of return
It's more than a habit
It's part of my life
Part of me says I should sip till it burns
And part of me says I ain't coping it right
All of my demons are taking a turn
I feel I've been fighting for half of my life
I locked myself inside this place in my head
My biggest fear is I ain't living it right
[Chorus]
Don't let me drown
I'm sinking down
I need you now
Don't walk away
Cuz my worst mistakes
Feel like rising waves
Don't let me drown
Drown
Don't let me drown
Drown
[Verse 2]
Yeah
These people don't notice the fact that I'm drowning
It's deeper than tears I don't show on my face
I write till I'm empty my soul on the page
It's another a bottle till I'm numbing the legs
You're there but you're not here
Not a soul in the world with enough care
When I'm buzzed in the head is when I think clear
Had enough of this shit i feel fear
Feel fear
I like feeling nothing I hate being sober
My biggest regret is not giving you closure
But half of my life was me getting fucked over
By people I trusted so I had to close it
Dive in a bottle to drown all the pain
As far as I know there ain't nothing the same
I gave all that I got but I'm left with the blame
Gave all that I got but I'm left with the blame
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I'm way past the point of return
It's more than a habit
It's part of my life
Part of me says I should sip till it burns
And part of me says I ain't coping it right
All of my demons are taking a turn
I feel I've been fighting for half of my life
I locked myself inside this place in my head
My biggest fear is I ain't living it right
[Chorus]
Don't let me drown
I'm sinking down
I need you now
Don't walk away
Cuz my worst mistakes
Feel like rising waves
Don't let me drown
Drown
Don't let me drown
Drown
[Outro]
Don't let me drown
Don't let me drown
