Drowning

Look around, do you like the silence
Addicted to the emptiness, the peace you gotta find it
Till the end of the night, till the end of my life
I'll be looking for something, come to find that its nothing

But I can't help myself, my mind lies somewhere else
In time I'll find some help, I long for some closure
My backs against the wall, I'm stuck I can't go on
I'm drowning, I'm counting to nothing, to nothing

Put down your gun before you hurt someone
Put down that knife before you take my life
Give me time and I can change your mind
If you tell me your secrets, I can tell you mine
I hear people speak around me
Who's outside the wall surrounding
Dim my lights and close my eyes
I'll be fine, just leave without me

I'm in a trance, I'm hypnotized
Open my eyes but I'm still blind
You're the only one I recognize
The only face I see, face I see
I forgot to mention, I pay close attention
You don't like to listen
You and I are driftin' away
Driftin' away, driftin' away
Driftin' away, driftin' away

All I wanted back was you
And I inside my bed by you
I used to dream about you all the time
Screamed your favorite song of mine

But I can't help myself, my mind lies somewhere else
In time I'll find some help, I long for some closure
My backs against the wall, I'm stuck I can't go on
I'm drowning, I'm counting to nothing, to nothing
