"Drown" lyrics

ysabelle Lyrics

"Drown"

I tried to change everything real about me to try to convince you to stay
Hiding the things that I think you won't like
Just to keep up with you changing your mind
I'll be a mirror reflecting your smile while I feel myself fading away
Ooh, tell me who you wanna see today
Hmm, now there's a stranger trapped in my own skin

Dress me up in your clothes
Build me up to your mold
Am I making you proud, proud?
Feel me stretching so thin
One more pull to cave in
Swear I won't make a sound, sound
Fighting the waves while I'm slowly sinking
Holding the weight of your crown
But I don't wanna let you down
So, I let myself drown

Find validation from cold, nameless faces
Convince me that I'm still okay
Filter the photos through well-painted lies
Hoping that no one can see through the blinds
Mm, now there's a stranger trapped in my own skin

Dress me up in your clothes
Build me up to your mold
Am I making you proud, proud?
Feel me stretching so thin
One more pull to cave in
Swear I won't make a sound, sound
Fighting the waves while I'm slowly sinking
Holding the weight of your crown
But I don't wanna let you down
(So I let myself drown)

I'm sorry, I'm sorry I'm never enough
I'm sorry if I'm saying sorry too much
I'm sorry that I couldn't change who I was
But I'm still right here

Dress me up in your clothes
Build me up to your mold
Am I making you proud, proud?
Feel me stretching so thin
One more pull to cave in
Swear I won't make a sound, sound
Fighting the waves while I'm slowly sinking
Holding the weight of your crown
But I don't wanna let you down
So I let myself drown (Ah-ah-ah-ah)

But I don't wanna let you down
So, I let myself drown
