"Drowning" lyrics Dashboard Confessional Lyrics "Drowning"
Am I drowning you out?
Boasts of defection
If everything was up to me,
I would be gone by the first sight
The first sight of hope I'd be packed up and out on my way.
Time has been spread so thin
And it's just hours 'fore the day begins.
And the things that are keepin' you here are not keepin' me here.
The things that are keepin' you here
will keep me away.
And "You'll be sorry", isn't that what they'll say?
Don't follow your heart 'cause it just seems to get in your way.
And don't ever leave here
and mope at your leisure and straighten out your crease dear
and truth is in a tall beer
Are you drowning your fears?
Pasts of deception
When everything is hazy then everything will be OK
When everything is hazy then you won't be sad that you stayed.
Time has been spread so thin
And it's just hours 'til the day begins.
And the things that are keepin' you here are not keeping me here.
The things that are keeping you here will keep me away
And "You'll be sorry", isn't that what they'll say?
Don't follow your heart 'cause it just seems to get in your way
And don't ever leave here
and mope at your leisure and straighten out your crease dear,
and truth is in a tall beer...
That's the end
That's the end
That's the end...
