Drown This City - Borderline Existence Lyrics

Drown This City Lyrics

"Borderline Existence"

The first time that you felt power
You learned to kill them with your silence
Iciness
The flames behind my teeth

Bite down
Year of the dragon, the seer, the witness
My crown
Do I lead or obey? Am I a legacy?

I really thought
I'd amount to something
I should have known
They'd get me in the end
I really thought
I'd amount to something
I should have known
They'd get me in the end

It drags me under
I'm drowning in your blood
You know it's so much better there

You didn't choose to enter
Into this cold-blooded world
But now you're here it's too fucking late
You don't know whether to lead or obey

Borderline existence
Unrelenting resistance

I really thought
I'd amount to something
I should have known
They'd get me in the end
I really thought
That I would die a legacy
I guess you win

It drags me under
I'm drowning in your blood
Waiting for something to come wake me up
A perfect stranger standing in the flood
You know it's so much better
