Drowning
Drowning in Reflections: A Soul's Journey Beyond Regret
Lyrics
Waded out to the sea
Initiating movement towards the sea
Dug my feet as deep as could be
Attempting to anchor oneself firmly
Oh, why'd I go so far
Questioning the decision to go too far
Now I can't even see the shore
Feeling lost and disconnected from the starting point
Grasping at something you've lost, washed away a lifetime ago
Trying to hold onto something lost in the past
Head to that horizon, it all seems so close
Striving for distant aspirations that seem within reach
Innocence is slippery at most
Recognizing that innocence is fleeting and easily lost
I wonder if drowning ever feels good
Contemplating if there could be solace in drowning
Do you visit the if and the should
Reflecting on hypothetical scenarios and regrets
Do you become all the things that you could
Considering becoming one's unfulfilled potentials
If you had gone all the way
Imagining the outcome if one had fully committed
Love is lying in bed
Love represented by moments of remorse in bed
Regretting every word wasn't said
Regretting unspoken words in the context of love
Love is lying on a table
Symbolizing vulnerability on a metaphorical table
Some things we aren't able to keep
Recognizing limitations in preserving certain things
I wonder if drowning ever feels good
Reiterating the contemplation of solace in drowning
Do you visit the if and the should
Revisiting hypothetical scenarios and regrets
Do you become all the things that you could
Exploring the possibility of realizing potential
If you had gone all the way
Imagining outcomes if one had pursued to the end
Take me down
Expressing a desire to be taken to the depths
Take me down
-Take me down
-Down to the bottom to see
Desiring to explore the bottom of the sea
Washed up onto silence and dreams
Feeling stranded with thoughts and dreams
This loss is as thick as it seems
Emphasizing the thickness of the experienced loss
But your eyes are like hours and all I can see
Focusing on the importance of time and perception
Is the time that is still meant to be
Recognizing the potential for future opportunities
I wonder if drowning ever feels good
Revisiting the notion of solace in drowning
Do we visit the if and the should
Reflecting on hypothetical scenarios and regrets collectively
Do we become all the things that you could
Considering the fulfillment of potential as a collective entity
If we had gone all the way
Imagining outcomes if everyone had pursued fully
Take me down
Repeating the desire to be taken to the depths
Take me down
-Take me down
-Down to the bottom to see
Reiteration of the longing to explore the sea's depths
