Drown (Sammy Irish Cover) Lyrics

Well I'm so tired of the rain
Falling softly on the ground
Just enough to get my feet wet
But not enough to let me drownI've been laying in my bed
Wishing I had never woken
Begging God to rid my head
Of every word you've ever spokenBroke my knuckles on the wall
Because I thought about the call
Where you said you'd always love me
Do you not tell the truth at all?Well if I ever cross your mind
Make sure you write down the times
So I will know the moments
I was eating you aliveAnd now I lay here
Waiting with the hope that
I might find some sleep
I need some sleep tonight
'cause I've been waiting on your call
But I know it will never come

But I'm still waiting by the phoneAnd don't you dare (don't you dare)
Say you ever loved me
Or even tell me that you cared
'cause you knew what you were doing
And you know just what you've done
How dare you say you miss me
With your spit still on his tongueI am broken I am beaten
I'm mistreated and I'm torn
I am cold with no direction
But I'm lost without your warmthI'm trying hard to find some hope
That I might get the chance to breathe
Get off my mind, give back my heart
And get the fuck away from meI know I couldn't give you much
But I know I gave my best
You were always my princess
And now he's sliding up your dressAnd I know I gave the world
Everything I've ever had
Johnny Cash said love would burn
I never thought it'd hurt this badWell I'm so tired of the rain
Falling softly on the ground
Just enough to get my feet wet
But not enough to let me drownI've been laying in my bed
Wishing I had never woken
Begging God to rid my head
Of every word you've ever spokenBroke my knuckles on the wall
Because I thought about the call
Where you said you'd always love me
Do you not tell the truth at all?Well if I ever cross your mind
Make sure you write down the times
So I will know the moments
I was eating you aliveYou are the itch that's on my back
You are the gum under my shoe
You are the horrors of my past
You are the chill that haunts the roomYou are the creaking on my steps
You are cancer, you are plague
You are regret, you are disease
I wish that you would go away
