Drown
Sinking into Inner Turmoil: Embracing Demons
Lyrics
Chase this tease into the open wave
Expresses the desire to pursue a tantalizing temptation.
And take this leash into your inner slave
Suggests surrendering control and submitting to inner desires or struggles.
Follow me into the open end
Invites someone to join in exploring an uncertain or risky situation.
Now gather these pieces of broken man
Calls for collecting and dealing with the shattered aspects of oneself.
I will set in motion, to open me up again
Expresses a willingness to initiate personal growth or change.
I will make the ocean, swallow me up and then
Describes a commitment to facing challenges, even if they seem overwhelming.
Drown
The word "Drown" suggests a desire for immersion or transformation.
Close this cell, imprison your only friend
Advises closing off oneself and confining personal connections.
And I can't kill, but I'm not so innocent
Acknowledges a lack of innocence and an acceptance of one's darker aspects.
Rid this place of me and everyone
Advocates for removing one's presence from a situation or environment.
And change this face to burn in the sun
Suggests a desire to transform one's identity or persona dramatically.
I will set in motion, to open me up again
Reiterates a commitment to personal transformation and self-discovery.
I will make the ocean, swallow me up and then
Expresses a willingness to confront challenges and allow them to engulf the self.
Drown

Stop this life, I can not stop this life
