Drown In You
Chris Daughtry · Other Songs - Chris Daughtry
Lay it down and lose it all
It's takin me so far beyond the point of no return
Gave all that I had when hope was gone, hope was gone
Is this real or is it just another crazy dream?
That someday soon will fade away
Feels just like I'm under water and can barely breathe
Dying in the bed that I have made
Chorus:
I don't wanna drown in you
I'm sinking and I'm torn in two
So when you see me come up air
Don't try to hold me down, just save me now
Don't let me drown in you
(Don't let me drown in you...)
Said it pulls me in closer than I've ever been
There aint' no way I can't escape
Without a doubt you know that I would thread the deepest end
Thousand years forever in a day
Chorus:
I don't wanna drown in you
I'm sinking and I'm torn in two
So when you see me come up for air
Don't try to hold me down, just save me now
(Just save me now)
Don't let me drown in you
Did i bring this to myself?
Can I get out alive?
Yeah I've given you the best of me
Now you want the rest of me
What's it gonna take to survive?
There's a place where you can light the fire and watch it burn
Chorus:
I don't wanna drown in you
(Drown in you)
I'm sinking and I'm torn in two
(I'm torn in two)
So when you see me come up for air
Don't try to hold me down, just save me now
(Just save me now)
Don't let me drown in you
(Don't let me drown in you)
Drown in you
(Just save me now)
Don't let me drown in you
(Drown in you)
