Amanda Fiddler - Drown My Sorrows

In delicate times, we take our chances
There's no hesitation in our furtive glances
I'm hard lines and clear corners
You're blurred edges, everything smudged over
Banned books and hidden places
It's a stolen love, so we whisper phrases
I'm dead on my feet, but you're awake and alive
So I fall hard and fast and sweet and far this time
So drown my sorrows, there's no place for them here
The world is ending, but we pretend it's all clear
Drown my sorrows as the walls are tumbling down
I know you're scared, but darling, we go out with the crown
I was sound and fury, the fire and the flame
But since knowing you I've never been the same
You're the softest of memories, the smoke and the curve
To be here in this moment's all that you deserve
There's something new about sneaking around
It's like a drug that brings me high, flows through my veins, makes my head pound
We don't step in to love, we fall
And all the things I want to say, what if somebody's said them all?
So drown my sorrows, there's no place for them here
The world is ending, but we pretend it's all clear
Drown my sorrows as the walls are tumbling down
I know you're scared, but darling, we go out with the crown
Am I the hero or the villain this time?
It never seems to matter, there's just no reason or rhyme
Am I imagining it, or is this real?
There's never been someone like you who's made this how I feel
Is it delirium or is this love?
I want to stand here and be held by you 'til my time's up
Am I imagining it, or is this real?
There's never been someone like you who's made this how I feel
So drown my sorrows, there's no place for them here
The world is ending, but we pretend it's all clear
Drown my sorrows as the walls are tumbling down
I know you're scared, but darling, we go out with the crown
