Drowning Lyrics - Dashboard Confessional

And we're drowning you out 

in boasts of defection 

if everything was up to me I would be gone by the first sign 

the first sign of hope I'd be packed up and out of my way. 

And time has been spread so thin 

and it's just hours till the day begins. 

And the things that are keeping you here are not keeping me here (at all) 

and the things that are keeping you here will keep me away. 

And you'll be sorry 

isn't that what they'll say. 

Don't follow your heart cause it just seems to get in your way.

And don't ever leave here 

and mope at your leisure 

and straighten out your crease, dear 

and truth is in a tall beer. 

Are you drowning your fears 

in a glass of deception? 

When everything is easy then everything will be ok . 

When everything is easy then you won't be sad that you stayed. 

And time has been spread so thin 

and its just hours till the day begins. 

And the things that are keeping you here are not keeping me here (at all) 

and the things that are keeping you here will keep me away. 

And you'll be sorry 

isn't that what they'll say. 

Don't follow your heart cause it just seems to get in your way.
