Drown Lyrics by Chief State

Waiting For Your Colours

2022

[Verse 1]
I’m leaving now
I’ve spent far too long trying to calm you down
All those times I wasted driving to your town
When I knew that you knew that we were already trapped six feet underground
You let the water in and now all my strength is spent trying not to drown
But it’s harder now 'cause I’m all worn out

[Chorus]
I bet it doesn’t even matter if I run out of here
You probably won’t notice when I’m gone
You told me you’ve been getting sadder
Well I’ve been getting madder
I bet you knew it all along

[Verse 2]
In ten year’s time when I look back on my twenties
Will time be good to me or will I feel empty?
'Cause lately I’ve been thinking with you I wasted
What should have been my best years
What should have been my best years
(They should have been my best years)
Spent too much of my time with you

[Chorus]
I bet it doesn’t even matter if I run out of here
You probably won’t notice when I’m gone
You told me you’ve been getting sadder
Well I’ve been getting madder
I bet you knew it all along
All along

[Bridge]
We’re always looking for something
To justify our existence
So is this life good for nothing?
Or do I just lack the substance?

[Outro]
I always thought that I’d do something
Something good by now
But all the things I wanted
Wash away as I drown
