Slow Drowning Lyrics - The Beloved

when we all agree 

will you take it gracefully? 

and years from now 

will you be forgotten? 

i take each day as it comes 

but still i assume it's all wrong 

i remember me in my infancy 

how strange to feel i was braver then 

but still 

so many harder things lie ahead of me 

and i will 

not be swayed by your idiocy 

everything's changed 

everyone's gone 

i'm all on my own 

as i knew all along 

and i remember now what i had meant to say 

how strange to feel i was braver then 

all i call my own 

all i call myself 

i have spent so long 

without the change i need 

and if i think things through 

it doesn't seem too clear 

as if there's no importance 

in the things i hold most dear
