Driftin' Lyrics - Singles - Thirteen

Driftin 

[Verse 1] 

I let the alcohol flow, down my throat 

Like a river of regret in which I float 

On a raft, not a boat, cause i crafted, what I know 

All the actions, that I chose, it provoked 

The rapids and waterfalls we endured 

Its as if it was backwards cause I was sure 

It felt like I was going against the current and never turned 

The weather furnished my pain, worsened, I let it pour 

But you swam to shore, and called it quits 

In the midst of calm waters, you wanted to stir up arguments 

Regarding shit upstream that we had past 

I see at last why you wanted to leave, you believed I had 

Hidden intent, to ditch you when we had hit against 

A boulder, then push you off my shoulder to go and swim again 

Use it as an excuse to leave but it was you and me 

Until we hit the ocean but emotions caused new debree 

[Chorus] 

Now Im driftin 

Yeah Im driftin 

Get high by myself, drunk by myself 

Cause really theres nothing else, cause nothing helps 

Yeah bitch, youre killin me 

Yeah bitch, youre killin me 

Killin me softly, yeah I guess that it cost me 

I just wanted to come and say Im sorry 

[Verse 2] 

We cycle back, despite the fact that its lightning fast 

Only time could tell, but time without you is hell 

Lets try it over again and maybe this time prevail 

Set sail to an island to grow old and pale 

Sienarra to yesterday for the better days of tomorrow 

Honor your every wish like Calypso and its no bother 

Infinite mounts of wishes, no hidden intent for karma 

I repent all your sins and dispense them inside the lava 

Boilin up from the love, oh boy this is like a drug 

Lets pop some oxycodone, stop being stones in the mud 

A feelin as if youre free, euphoric immortally 

But when you start coming down, pain rushes in horribly 

Reality sets in, were back to stressin again 

You cant allude from your doom by using hallucinogens 

So screw with the mess and pressure, this weather is gettin heavier 

Wrote a shit load of letters, gotta get it to the messenger 

[Chorus] 

Before I drowned 

Shit Im going down (shit) 

Get high by myself, drunk by myself 

Cause really theres nothing else, cause nothing helps 

Yeah bitch, youre killin me 

Yeah bitch, youre killin me 

Killin me softly, yeah I guess that it cost me 

I just wanted to come and say Im sorry 

[Verse 3] 

I have no defense against the waters, fuck it 

Now Im scooping buckets to cut it from flooding 

Im caught up and stuck in this predicament, Im thinkin something caused it 

But how could a woman so flawless be the cause of all this 

Shit, Im tossing and turnin, I think Im sinkin 

Im blacking out, I really dont know what the fuck Im drinkin 

Im gasping now, I cant seem to grasp air, my lungs fill with liquid 

I choke on my own vomit from the sea sickness 

Youll see me at the shipwreck 

On the couch, hungover, look like a big mess 

Washed up on the river banks 

Not even knowing how much shit I drank 

[Chorus] 

I was driftin 

Yeah I was driftin (yeah) 

Get high by myself, drunk by myself 

Cause really theres nothing else, cause nothing helps 

Yeah bitch, youre killin me 

Yeah bitch, youre killin me 

Killin me softly, yeah I guess that it cost me 

I just wanted to come and say Im sorry 

[Outro] 

Say that Im sorry, for all the shit Ive done (2x)
