Kurt Travis sings from the perspective of a mother whose daughter drowned when she wasn’t paying attention. Travis has gone on record to say that all the songs on the Happiness album are personal to him so it’s probable that this actually happened to someone he knows o...
[Intro: Kurt Travis]
Drowning in the lake
I only left her for a couple of seconds
And now she's gone
[Verse 1: Kurt Travis]
Waking up for what?
As I pace back and forth
Maybe it's time to move away
But what would that prove anyway?
[Pre-Chorus: Kurt Travis]
Listening to the answering machine
Over and over
Only to hear your voice one more time
Just one more time
[Chorus: Kurt Travis]
It's not your fault, that's what they all keep saying
(That's what they all keep saying)
Blaming myself, there's nothing left
Why do I bother praying?
(Why do I bother praying?)
It's not your fault, that's what they all keep saying
(That's what they all keep saying)
Blaming myself, there's nothing left
Why do I bother praying?
(Why do I bother praying?)
[Verse 2: Kurt Travis]
Beg me for directions
Like I have all the answers
I neglected her life
Now what, what do I do with mine?
[Pre-Chorus: Kurt Travis]
Listening to the answering machine
Over and over
Only to hear your voice one more time
Just one more time
[Chorus: Kurt Travis]
It's not your fault, that's what they all keep saying
(That's what they all keep saying)
Blaming myself, there's nothing left
Why do I bother praying?
(Why do I bother praying?)
It's not your fault, that's what they all keep saying
(That's what they all keep saying)
Blaming myself, there's nothing left
Why do I bother praying?
(Why do I bother praying?)
[Outro: Kurt Travis, Will Swan & Tony Tataje]
Drowning in the lake
I only left her for a couple of seconds
(Drowning in the lake)
(I only left her for a couple of seconds)
I only left her for a couple of seconds
(Drowning, drowning)
