Kitchen Dwellers
Drowning (...Again)
[Verse 1]
Oh, tell me, when did it start?
That's when it all comes apart
You tell me I'm obsessed and all that I got left
Is knotty pine in your heart
[Verse 2]
It's getting harder to leave
You'd have me crawl on my knees
I see you winterized behind ashen eyes
And left our love on the breeze
To blow through the trees
[Chorus]
I'll throw up my hands and I pray for the rain
And I can't remember callin' your name
And I thought I'd bury you under the pain
But you push me halfway down and I'm drownin' again
I'm drownin' again
[Verse 3]
I needed somethin' familiar
Somethin' to cool down my mind
Like a window down, oh, in my hometown
Somethin' simple and fine
[Verse 4]
But still you offer your hand
Lead me down river bends
You say it's safe to cross, but when I'm feelin' lost
Well, you're gone once again
Slip through my hands
[Chorus]
I'll throw up my hands and I pray for the rain
And I can't remember callin' your name
And I thought I'd bury you under the pain
But you push me halfway down and I'm drownin' again
I'm drownin' again
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Stand still now, thumb raised to the sky
Don't drag me, I'll carry on with time
Been livin' on amphetamine lies
'Til she pulls me under rising tides
[Chorus]
I'll throw up my hands and I pray for the rain
And I can't remember callin' your name
And I thought I buried you under the pain
But you rose again when I drowned in the stream
And I'm swept away on that last train leavin'
As that east wind pulls back on my brain
And I know I buried you deeper than sin
But your name comes up, old friend, and we're drownin' again
I'm drownin' again
