Son Volt › Lyrics › Drown

Sky cracks open
The walls falling through the floor
Just as well to keep it
A guessing game in store

You're with me now, will be again
Other points in between
And the cruel, cruel mornings
Turn 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
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
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
