The Beat - Drowning lyrics

Compromise around the corner Can you hear the accountant's call? Could you refuse another dollar? Could you stop yourself from falling? So in between the sleepless nights You dream that you are winning fights But then it happens, dreadful thing A wave appears too big to swim You're drowning, you're drowning You're drowning, you're drowning Buy a beach before next summer How do you feel in the morning? If the light's an awful bother I could always close the curtains Just close your eyes and count to ten See if you still remember when Your life seemed easy, you had friends But that was different, that that was then You're drowning, you're drowning (Round and round and round) You're drowning, you're drowning (In a frenzy now) You want fe go in a de ocean (A so me say) I saw you drowning in slow motion (And now me learn) Far too late to make a commotion Too late for you to show easy motion That's why you go down to the bottom, say you can't reach the top Get stuck on the bottom, say you can't reach the top A two days later say they find you 'pon the rocks Say ha ha ha ha ha, bad luck, eh, so Tell yourself until you're certain When you hear the accountants call You'll buy a beach before next summer Swim away and leave it all So underwater, deaf and blind Under such pressures you might find A secret right before the end That makes you want to breathe again You're drowning, you're drowning (Round and round and round) You're drowning, you're drowning (In a frenzy now) You're drowning, you're drowning (Round and round and round) You're drowning, you're drowning (Round and round and round)
