Drowning Man

With a shrug nd a sigh

Deeper you slide

Painting your mind closing your eyes

Seeing the signs but not asking why

The promises fade and hope leaves you dry

Bound in chains of fear and pain

Take a look through the eyes of the walking dead

Kissing the blade

Feeding the shame

Killing the pain and dying within

Trying so hard to believe the lies

you self to yourself a soul sacrificed

Memories fade of your life and crimes

And leave you insane dreaming of lies

I hear the cry of pain in your voice

Your trembling hands betraying your words

Time is a blut

One night to the next

Black when you rise and black when you rest

In a pouring rain the searching begins

Somewhere in your heart is a drowning man

Running wild crawling in sin

You cling to the blade as the bleeding begins

At the end of yourself is where this road leads

The black inner sea that's raging within

A cry in the dark as the blade's sinking in

This way isn't the way it was meant to be

From bad to worse

Can't break the curse

So the bottle's here to stay

Crawl inside and hide away

In a pouring rain the searching begins

Somewhere in your heart is a drowning man

Running wild crawling in sin

You cling to the blade as the bleeding begins

At the end of yourself is where this road leads

The black inner sea that's raging within

A cry in the dark as the blade's sinking in

This way isn't the way it was meant to be
