Going under I don’t know if I’ll make it through
Left asunder from myself and slowly turning blue
Drowning hope as my life falls into a deep despair
A feeling that I’ve learned to smother but is always there
Going under
Crawling under
Drowning under
Falling under
Growing up with a belief that time was on my side
Feeling like my life’s betrayed me and I’m out of time
Aging at a pace that numbs me into atrophy
Discontent with my life’s purpose and with all I see
Going under
Crawling under
Drowning under
Falling under
If you believe your world’s adrift then I’m a lot like you
Exploit your grief, accept your fate, there’s nothing you can do
All the corporate bullshit is exactly what it seems
Fed up with the rat race chasing someone else’s dream
I hate them and they hate me though never shall we meet
Living in the shallow end but in it way too deep
Going under
Crawling under
Drowning under
Falling under
If you believe your world’s adrift then I’m a lot like you
Exploit your grief, accept your fate, there’s nothing you can do
Drink too much, do drugs, fight, fuck take everything you can
No one cares and God will laugh at least you’ll make your stand
Know
The undertow
Below
Your days go
Grow
With what you know
Embrace
The afterglow
Going under
Crawling under
Drowning under
Falling under
If you believe your world’s adrift then I’m a lot like you
Exploit your grief, accept your fate, there’s nothing you can do
Drink too much, do drugs, fight, fuck make all that you can make
Roll the dice and don’t regret the chance you didn’t take
Drink too much, do drugs, fight, fuck
