Katrielle Jordan - Drowning

Perfect hugs
Perfect love
Perfect lie
Thorough plans
Bloody hands
Sharpest knife
Through no fault of your own
'Cause you said you've got problems at home
Pain in your brown eyes
Twinge in your complex smile
But you're alone
So I followed you
Stranded, deserted, abandoned
And begged you to run back home
At the top of your lungs
You cried,
"No one will love me, I'm better off on my own"
Oh, what a force of the imagination
A perfectly impossible heart equation
'Cause you loved harder than anyone I'd ever known
The best friend to everyone you met
Yet, you were alone
Mmm
Sleepless nights
Dimmest lights
Loudest tears
I threw all of myself away that year
Though the fault wasn't mine
That was the moment I knew it was time
Death by a bad plan
Drown in the quicksand
You wouldn't even dare to take my hand
So I reached for you
Loudly said,
"Please take it now, I don't think you have much time left"
Then you fall so I drown and you're holding me down
So I can't catch my breath
By no stretch of the imagination
Was the bottom of the lake my destination
So I fought and I kicked and I screamed until I passed out
I let go of your hand so I can make it out
Alive
Mmm
You should know that putting my mask on first
Is worse than the way the drowning hurts
Haunted conversations that you just can't take back
You did this to yourself and I think you know that
And walking away is so much harder than staying
But sometimes, it's the price worth paying
So we can both be happy again
Mmm
Sleepless nights
Dimmest Lights
Loudest tears
I threw all of myself away that year
