I'm drowning I'm drowning in this whirlpool, I'm losing my cool. The clouds overhead, They thunder and lighten The lightning strikes my vein And burns me, burns my heart But I'm helpless like a wingless bird. It's a disaster It's devastation It's catastrophe in creation. There's smog all around me, I have my eyes wide open But I still can't see. The smog's thickening, It's darkening And I'm disappearing. I'm disappearing into the darkness, My compulsion is my blindness And I can not be cured Cause may be I don't wanna see May be I don't wanna see. The tornado blew away my Veil, I'm standing naked and exposed I'm standing in hell. But you can't touch me You can't save me You can't help me Cause may be I don't wanna be saved Maybe I don't wanna be saved. Walking down this dusty road Slipping and stumbling. My breaths created a dust storm And the dust isn't settling The darkness is now uniform ; I got lost I lost the track of time I lost the track of route And the north star can't guide me Cause may be I don't wanna be found May be I don't wanna be found. But someday you might find me By the beating heart's deafening sound And if you do, That day, Please don't let me go. Please don't let me drown.

The Drown
I'm drowning I'm drowning in this whirlpool, I'm losing my cool. The clouds overhead, They thunder and lighten The lightning strikes my vein And burns me, burns my heart But I'm helpless like a wingless bird. It's a disaster It's devastation It's catastrophe in creation. There's smog all around me, I have my eyes wide open But I still can't see. The smog's thickening, It's darkening And I'm disappearing. I'm disappearing into the darkness, My compulsion is my blindness And I can not be cured Cause may be I don't wanna see May be I don't wanna see. The tornado blew away my Veil, I'm standing naked and exposed I'm standing in hell. But you can't touch me You can't save me You can't help me Cause may be I don't wanna be saved Maybe I don't wanna be saved. Walking down this dusty road Slipping and stumbling. My breaths created a dust storm And the dust isn't settling The darkness is now uniform ; I got lost I lost the track of time I lost the track of route And the north star can't guide me Cause may be I don't wanna be found May be I don't wanna be found. But someday you might find me By the beating heart's deafening sound And if you do, That day, Please don't let me go. Please don't let me drown.
