"Drift Away" lyrics
I know I don't appear to be what you expect
I took punches but I have some fight left
Don't count me out just because I've been knocked down
(Because I've been knocked down)
You seem to have me confused with the premise
Come walk in my shoes for one day
Maybe then you can see what's left of me
(What's left of me)
Head case, head filled with anxiety
I don't trust my addictive personality
Cause I might be the only one detrimental to my health
And now I can't leave
Now I'm staying right here
I can't breathe the air, what a nightmare
I'll just sit here and sing these songs to myself
A broken symphony
String on a violin
Playing the game of chance that I'll never win
I'm closing this chapter by writing this hook
So I will remember
When it all comes crashing down
What would be left of us now
So don't let me drift
So don't let me drift away from you now
When the waves come crashing down
Will we sink or will we drown
So don't let me slip
So don't let me slip away from you now
The night is running out
With everyone on the sidelines counting down
They're right behind me gaining ground
Now wait on the cards stacked perfectly against me
I'll push forward, there's fight left inside of me
No matter what it takes, I'll get to you eventually
Maybe someday it could be like the way it was
Then I'll never leave you
I'll stay right there
I'll be everything you need and before I swear
Then I won't have to sing these songs to myself
A broken symphony
String on a violin
Playing the game of chance that I'll never win
I'm closing this chapter by writing this hook
So I will remember
When it all comes crashing down
What would be left of us now
So don't let me drift
So don't let me drift away from you now
When the waves come crashing down
Will we sink or will we drown
So don't let me slip
So don't let me slip away from you now
When it all comes crashing down
What would be left of us now
So don't let me drift
So don't let me drift away from you now
When the waves come crashing down
Will we sink or will we drown
So don't let me slip
So don't let me slip away from you now
I took punches but I have some fight left
Don't count me out just because I've been knocked down
(Because I've been knocked down)
You seem to have me confused with the premise
Come walk in my shoes for one day
Maybe then you can see what's left of me
(What's left of me)
Head case, head filled with anxiety
I don't trust my addictive personality
Cause I might be the only one detrimental to my health
And now I can't leave
Now I'm staying right here
I can't breathe the air, what a nightmare
I'll just sit here and sing these songs to myself
A broken symphony
String on a violin
Playing the game of chance that I'll never win
I'm closing this chapter by writing this hook
So I will remember
When it all comes crashing down
What would be left of us now
So don't let me drift
So don't let me drift away from you now
When the waves come crashing down
Will we sink or will we drown
So don't let me slip
So don't let me slip away from you now
The night is running out

So don't let me slip
So don't let me slip away from you now
When it all comes crashing down
What would be left of us now
So don't let me drift
So don't let me drift away from you now
When the waves come crashing down
Will we sink or will we drown
So don't let me slip
So don't let me slip away from you now
