It slows me down Head underwater Wash me out Fall down and keep me under All waste and doubt Trip and surrender Will’s run out Full weight that could keep me down Sedate me now Thicker and colder This leaden crown Push down upon my shoulders Please slow it down Add friction to boulder Grind slower now There’s no more to give right now It slows me down Head underwater Wash me out Fall down and keep me under All waste and doubt Trip and surrender Will’s run out Full weight that could keep me down Post flood comes the drought Pain runs out And you put your hands up to the clouds Just to fall back once again another year from now
