Lyrics

I can never shake this
Constant drowning feeling
I try swimming
But I keep sinking
All my failures weigh me down
Losing sight of all this
Solid ground
The grip's tight
Around my leg again
I try to fight but it pulls me further in
It feels like
My lungs are caving in
I'm running out of breath and going under
And every day
I am regressing
I could never find the right direction
Pulled down by my own reflection
And I'm losing patience
I'll disappear beneath the sea
There's no reason to keep fighting
The tide is rising
All effort is wasted on me now
Don't pull me up I'll only
Drag you down
And in those eyes
Staring up at me
Is nothing but
Contempt for every time I've ever
Failed to hold it all together
And as I take my final breath
Before I slip into the depths
I finally realize that
I've been drowning myself all along
The grip's tight
Around my leg again
I try to fight but it pulls me further in
It feels like
My lungs are caving in
I'm running out of breath and going under
And every day
I am regressing
I could never find the right direction
Pulled down by my own reflection
And I'm losing patience
