Drowning - Jay Brannan
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
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
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 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
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
