Drown - Son Volt

Sky cracks open, walls falling to the floor

Just as well to keep it a guessing game in store

You’re with me now, will be again

All other points in between

And the cruel, cruel mornings

Have turned to days of swim or sink

If living right is easy, what goes wrong?

You’re causing it to drown

Didn’t want to turn that way

You’re causing it to drown

Doesn’t make a difference now

You’re causing it to drown

Silence knows, can’t drown a heart

Happenstance is falling through the cracks each day

Too close now to change it, fool’s gold is lighter anyway

When in doubt, move on, no need to sort it out

You’re with me now, will be again

All other points in between

And I want to find the right side of you

If living right is easy, what goes wrong

You’re causing it to drown

Didn’t want to turn that way

You’re causing it to drown

Doesn’t make a difference now

You’re causing it to drown

Silence knows, can’t drown a heart

When in doubt, move on, no need to sort it out

You’re with me now, will be again

All other points in between

And I want to find the right side of you

If living right is easy, what goes wrong

You’re causing it to drown

Didn’t want to turn that way

You’re causing it to drown

Doesn’t make a difference now

You’re causing it to drown

Silence knows, can’t drown a heart
