DRIFT Lyrics by Carmine Nights

2022

[Verse 1]
You can’t foresee it
The future lurks in the mist
But I was dreaming
And thought that I caught a glimpse
Just like it started with our backs against the wall
Glint in your eye had never seemed so colourful

And when it started
It just built up like a wave
Daily departing
It used to drive me insane
You were a river that was running through my veins
And made a mockery of sadness when it rained

[Pre-Chorus]
But this all went too far
A shadow from the start
And it goes…

[Chorus]
D.R.I.F.T
You drift away from me
It seems impossible to tell me how you feel
D.R.I.F.T
You drift away from me
It seems impossible to tell you how I feel
Cause this all felt too real
The life we used to share
But now we just don’t care

[Verse 2]
Hue of the morning
Sky should be painted with bliss
Stormclouds are forming
And yet we’re trying to resist
It’s like a crack that’s slowly etching cross the ground
A frayed up string that used to be so tightly wound

But nothing’s perfect
It’s what you tried to explain
Every day resets
Are all too often in vein
You hit the trigger and the race is almost run
Just need a flicker but the flame it weighs a tonne

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause this all went too far
We’re fading into dark
And it goes…

[Chorus]
D.R.I.F.T
You drift away from me
It seems impossible for you to tell me how you feel
D.R.I.F.T
You drift away from me
It seems impossible to tell you how I feel
Cause this all felt too real
The life we used to share
But now we just don’t care

[Bridge]
I wish I felt brand new
And fired up again
So maybe me and you
Could try and be friends
But I won’t hold my breath
With scars running deep
My heart has found new depths
For secrets to keep

[Chorus]
D.R.I.F.T
You drift away from me
It seems impossible for you to tell me how you feel
D.R.I.F.T
You drift away from me
It seems impossible to tell you how I feel
Cause this all felt too real
The life we used to share
But now we just don’t care

[Outro]
In the driftwood
We’re left just floating in the driftwood
