Jay Brannan - Drowning lyrics

rate me

it’s four a.m. again father, forgive me this sin uncomfortable in this life, yeah I can’t put down this knife, yeah I’m carving words in my arms, baby hey, scars are part of my charm, maybe I need the touch of a hand this isn’t what i had planned [Chorus] I need relief from this life I wanna slip away into the night don’t wanna see the sun again but can’t get swallowed up by this tragic whirlwind I wish the ocean was warm I feel like drowning I’m losing my faith in me I can’t remember the last time i felt free from voices inside my head when I taste liberation, they just feed me fear instead you say I’m out of control at least i still have a soul no, I don’t need your advice some compassion would be nice [Chorus] I can’t take any more of your pills they hold my head up but still it feels so wrong I can’t believe the price that I’ve paid for this chemically-induced, perceivably ideal, take-it-with-a-glass-of-water day [Chorus]
