DROWNING IN SOCIETY
I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
I got up high, so very high
then pulled back down by gravity
I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
I got up high, yeah really high
then sucked in to insanity
and just outside I can see my death
drowning in a puddle emptier than my head
and back inside I can hear your breath
sucking in all the air you have left
and I was once famous
and I was once shameless
of the things that once made me stand out
but now I've died away
and I have no more fame
and its my turn to sit back down
'cos I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
I got up high, so very high
then pulled back down by gravity
I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
i got up high, yeah really high
then sucked in to insanity
and every breath I take of that smoke
its getting me closer, I'm about to choke
i was coughing this morning when I woke
thinking this was all a big joke
and now that I am nameless
what is this tired lameness
in a place where the world is too big
I'm all burned out today
and I'm trying to find my way
but the only way out is to dig
cos I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
I got up high, so very high
then pulled back down by gravity
I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
I got up high, yeah really high
then sucked in to insanity
and just round the corner I can smell the stench
of the pie you're cooking up on the bench
its raining now and I'm getting drenched
but at least that my thirst will be quenched
and people think I'm brainless
but I am just aimless
cos I have no idea where I am
the quiet skies are rainless
in a street that is drain less
but the world is still flooding with spam
cos I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
I got up high, so very high
then pulled back down by gravity
I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
I got up high, yeah really high
then sucked in to insanity
I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
I got up high, so very high
then pulled back down by gravity
I'm drowning in a puddle
the puddle of society
I got up high, yeah really high
then sucked in to insanity
society
is eating me
cutting me down
just like a tree
society
is drinking me
sucking my blood
just like a flea
society
is drowning me
pulling me down
into the sea
