[Verse 1]
The river's running fast right now
It's the time of year the water cleanses itself
Running wild but always in control
And now's the time
To sever the ties
To habits that weaken
Disguised by tradition
[Pre-Chorus]
Drain away this fear
Until it disappears
Yeah
[Chorus]
I'm not ready to swim, I'm not going to sink
I just want to float through the sea
Are you pulling me down? Are you holding me up?
Or are you slowly drowning me?
[Verse 2]
There's something to be said for luck
It's better than being good
When half of being good is being lucky anyways
We're spreading out (We're spreading out)
We're harder to hit (We're harder to hit)
Become a moving target
Drop your burden
And abandon it
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Slowly drowning me
I remember a day
When I could walk right down the street
And feel so confident
And know everything's okay
Take my hand
Don't let go, but please remember
Hearts can grow
We still have to take it slow
I love with caution
And trust alone
[Chorus][x2]
[Outro]
Slowly drowning me
