Watch out, you're falling in
Just trapped, suffocating
I've been here before, now I'm back again
I don't know how to control myself
Head down, between the waves
I can't breathe, swimming this sea
I'm drowning myself, in my memories
Can't survive this wasteland
Leave it to a miracle man
To make a mess of himself making him the monster
A father, a teacher, a soldier, someone's lover
A creature of comfort, who hasn't forgotten how to get where he's going
Sipping on the sugar, tipping back on the brew, coating a mind in cotton
Wanting to forget, wanting to forget it all
Watch out, you're falling in
Just trapped, suffocating
I've been here before, now I'm back again
I don't know how to control myself
Head down, between the waves
I can't breathe, swimming this sea
I'm drowning myself, in my memories
Can't survive this wasteland
Holy is her life in the children's eyes
Salt on her sleeves and cubs on her skirt tails, white washed by boredom
A maiden, a mother, a lady, a lover
Rolling through life and missing the ride, drowning in drinks every night
Slave to the sugar, bound to the brew, coating the mind in cotton
Waiting to forget, wanting to forget it all
Watch out, you're falling in
Just trapped, suffocating
I've been here before, now I'm back again
I don't know how to control myself
Head down, between the waves
I can't breathe, swimming this sea
I'm drowning myself, in my memories
Can't survive this wasteland
