[Verse]
Started with a sound
There was no crowd
Started on my own
Shit was gold

Writing at night in the red light
That was my high
While they were inhaling their high
I was living mine

Started with a sound
Then came the crowd

[Pre Chorus]
I’ve been down and out (I’ve been down and out)
So repressed (So repressed)
I’m so depressed
I’ve been downing wine
Drinking more to lower stress (I’ve been drinking more to lower the stress)
I can’t feel my head when the morning comes (can’t feel my head)

[Chorus]
I’ve been drowning
I can’t swim in the counterfeit
I’ve been drowning
I can’t swim in the counterfeit
I’ve been drowning
I can’t swim in the counterfeit
I’ve been drowning
I can’t swim in the counterfeit
(Yeah yeah oh)

[Verse]
I ain't even swimming to where I wanna be
I ain't even living how I wanna live
I ain't even feeling how I wanna feel
And if I swimming then I ain't loving (loving x4)

[Outro]
I’ve been drowning
Why won’t you just love yourself yourself
I’ve been drowning
Why won’t you just love yourself
I’ve been drowning
Why won’t you just why won’t just why won’t you just
Love yourself (x2)
Drowning (x2)

Drowning
