[Verse 1: Cryptic Wisdom]

What is it for? I feel like I bother people

I get ignored, I can't help but overthink it

Gotta be more

Than swimming when I feel like sinking

Drowning, I'm drowning, I'm drowning


[Chorus: Cryptic Wisdom]

I'm drowning in the shame

I'm only to blame, I did it to myself

I shared my pain, please, don't hold it against me

I'm just feeling empty, I'm just feeling empty


[Verse 2: Vin Jay]

Let me drown in my sorrow tonight

II don't really wanna think at all

Remember when I used to wonder what the top felt like

Now, I just pray that I don't fall

But my heart has been cold to the touch

And I haven't been sober for months

Been dealing with emotions, I'm having trouble opening up

Let me pour up, I know it's my crutch

But I'm hoping that someday I can swallow my pride

And release all the pain that I'm holding inside

But until then, I guess I'll stay on my grind

But I can't help but feel like I'm wasting my time


[Verse 3: Cryptic Wisdom]

Where do you go when you feel like you're drowning

But feel like you can't live without it?

Where do you go when you know that it's hopeless

It's over, but still wanna doubt it?


[Chorus: Cryptic Wisdom]

Let me drown (I'm drowning in the shame)

(I'm only to blame)

Let me drown (I did it to myself)

(I shared my pain)

Let me drown (Please don't hold it against me)

(I'm just feeling empty)

Let me drown (I'm just feeling empty, I'm just feeling empty)

(I'm just feeling empty)
