Lyrics Skunk Anansie

Skunk Anansie

Drowning

I never called you a liar

Till you slayed the truth

You said you'd set me on fire

Well you just scorched my roots

I never was a believer

In your bloated kings

Your gods are underachievers

With unguarded whims

So now we are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning

The consequence is unfurling, unfurling, unfurling

We're falling, falling, falling

And drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning

I tried to reason for duty

You produced a spin

You're motivated by beauty

And the desire to win

Shadows converging breaking

Cold hand shaking

You beat me till I'm tamed

Instead of calming my fury

You just fanned the flames

So now we are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning

The consequence is unfurling, unfurling, unfurling

We're falling, falling, falling

And drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning

So now we are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning

So now we are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning

The consequence is unfurling, unfurling, unfurling

We're falling, falling, falling

And drowning, drowning, drowning

We are drowning
