The Drowning by The Haunted Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2006

[Verse 1]
High on fire and solid confidence
Truthful rantings but no one is listening
Check collateral, sweep the corners
The fear of words in a fucked up reality

[Verse 2]
Steal my freedom of speech, my liberty
Fail my rights to express myself
All this half-lied semperfi stone-faced bullshit
Infecting me to deplete my design

[Chorus]
I'm drowning in the fear of gods
The more I see the less I want
I was not raised to shut my mouth but as long it holds me
I will fight it
And scold it
All my life

[Verse 3]
Merge and fold to avoid complexity
All we knows is a backfire parody
Know your place you see no malady
Shut your hole and accept the abuse
[Verse 4]
Let it burn
Let it burn
Let it burn I don't care if we all go down
Let it burn
Let it burn
Let it burn I don't care if we all go down

[Chorus]
I'm drowning in the fear of gods
The more I see the less I want
I was not raised to shut my mouth but as long it holds me
I will fight it
And scold it
All my life

[Bridge]
As I close my eyes I can see it now
In a sepia twilight sundown
To the sound of electric eyes
The obediant sons and the daughters all perfectly in line
All hail
Raised hands
In impeccable synchronicity

[Chorus]
I'm drowning in the fear of gods
The more I see the less I want
I was not raised to shut my mouth but as long it holds me
I will fight it
And scold it
All my life
