Drowning; I'm lost and alone
I'm trying my best just to make it home
but it's raining so goddamn hard
and I've still got so far to go.
When you're with me, things aren't as bad as they seem.
I see clearly, see who i'm supposed to be.
This town is so cold, it kills me to be away.
I'm getting so old, it kills me when you beg me to stay.
Don't leave, your home is here with me.
I'm sorry, I'll make it up to you.
I promise, I'll be home soon.
