Thirteen - Driftin' Lyrics
[Verse 1]I let the alcohol flow, down my throatLike a river of regret in which I floatOn a raft, not a boat, cause i crafted, what I knowAll the actions, that I chose, it provokedThe rapids and waterfalls we enduredIt’s as if it was backwards cause I was sureIt felt like I was going against the current and never turnedThe weather furnished my pain, worsened, I let it pourBut you swam to shore, and called it quitsIn the midst of calm waters, you wanted to stir up argumentsRegarding shit upstream that we had pastI see at last why you wanted to leave, you believed I hadHidden intent, to ditch you when we had hit againstA boulder, then push you off my shoulder to go and swim againUse it as an excuse to leave but it was you and meUntil we hit the ocean but emotions caused new debree[Chorus]Now I’m driftin’Yeah I’m driftin’Get high by myself, drunk by myselfCause really there’s nothing else, cause nothing helpsYeah *****, you’re killin meYeah *****, you’re killin meKillin’ me softly, yeah I guess that it cost meI just wanted to come and say I’m sorry[Verse 2]We cycle back, despite the fact that it’s lightning fastOnly time could tell, but time without you is hellLet’s try it over again and maybe this time prevailSet sail to an island to grow old and paleSienarra to yesterday for the better days of tomorrowHonor your every wish like Calypso and it’s no botherInfinite ‘mounts of wishes, no hidden intent for karmaI repent all your sins and dispense them inside the lavaBoilin’ up from the love, oh boy this is like a drugLet’s pop some oxycodone, stop being stones in the mudA feelin as if you’re free, euphoric immortallyBut when you start coming down, pain rushes in horriblyReality sets in, we’re back to stressin againYou can’t allude from your doom by using hallucinogensSo screw with the mess and pressure, this weather is gettin’ heavierWrote a shit load of letters, gotta get it to the messenger[Chorus]Before I drownedShit I’m going down (shit)Get high by myself, drunk by myselfCause really there’s nothing else, cause nothing helpsYeah *****, you’re killin meYeah *****, you’re killin meKillin’ me softly, yeah I guess that it cost meI just wanted to come and say I’m sorry[Verse 3]I have no defense against the waters, ***** itNow I’m scooping buckets to cut it from floodingI’m caught up and stuck in this predicament, I’m thinkin’ something caused itBut how could a woman so flawless be the cause of all thisShit, I’m tossing and turnin’, I think I’m sinkinI’m blacking out, I really don’t know what the ***** I’m drinkin’I’m gasping now, I can’t seem to grasp air, my lungs fill with liquidI choke on my own vomit from the sea sicknessYou’ll see me at the shipwreckOn the couch, hungover, look like a big messWashed up on the river banksNot even knowing how much shit I drank[Chorus]I was driftin’Yeah I was driftin’ (yeah)Get high by myself, drunk by myselfCause really there’s nothing else, cause nothing helpsYeah *****, you’re killin meYeah *****, you’re killin meKillin’ me softly, yeah I guess that it cost meI just wanted to come and say I’m sorry[Outro]Say that I’m sorry, for all the shit I’ve done (2x)
