Drowning Lyrics - Singles - Lion's Share

icy water pulls me down, surrounding me 

drifting with the gentle stream, 

embracing me too weary to reach the surface 

a soldier of fortune bearing arms 

without belief he's been under fire and 

has never felt no grief pride and glory 

the innocent dying for pride and glory 

i hear them beg for mercy the terrifying 

screams i hear them echo in my mind, cryin' 

i'm drowning slowly inside the dream 

i choke on the water drowning slow and 

i see the visions of slaughter 

awake in a cold sweat haunted by the 

things he saw the silhouettes dancing 

on the bedroom paperwall hell and fire 

the yesterday victims it's hell and fire 

i hear them beg for mercy the terrifying 

screams i hear them echo in my mind, cryin' 

i'm drowning slowly inside the dream 

i choke on the water drowning slow and 

i see the visions of slaughter 

the hero in shadows for the gold he 

sells his soul to fight for the honor 

every mercenary's goal pride and glory 

the innocent dying for pride and glory
