Drown

from Agneta by Hungry Animals

/

lyrics

Stick around a little longer
Don’t you want to see
the paint dry?

I strayed away but I’ve come back now
My white walls need
the colour
of your skin
again

Oh no
When I breathe it doesn’t fill my lungs
My stone eyes can’t even see the shore

I float
on this pedestal that drags me down
with a platform of defective common sense

Laughing aloud
I try to flood my clouded mind

I’m home
but I slipped in the drink
and I don’t expect you to stay
and watch me drown

No I don’t expect you to stay
and watch me drown

Don’t come in here
I can’t have them
seeing me like this

I need time to
process can’t be
fine when you insist

Don’t
lift me out
I’m in my
therapeutic haze

It’s a mess that
pain(t) can cover
we’ll just have to wait

Stick around a little longer
Don’t you want to see
the paint dry?
