Drown Lyrics
The water's at our knees
It's rising while we speculate to its existing
Sinking merrily
Invincible, convinced no warning is worth heeding
The ocean deep and black
That seemed so shallow
Pulls me under
I'm not giving up that easy
I'm not giving up on anything
Long as I have lungs still breathing
Learn to swim
Before we drown
Come, come one and all
And sacrifice your pride to find a new beginning
Open up your ears
And eyes to see our minds are still in need of changing
If we knew the truth
Would we even care at all
Or be pulled under
I'm not giving up that easy
I'm not giving up on anything
Long as I have lungs still breathing
Learn to swim
Before we drown
Grant us grace to change our minds
It's rising while we speculate to its existing
Sinking merrily
Invincible, convinced no warning is worth heeding
That seemed so shallow
Pulls me under
I'm not giving up on anything
Long as I have lungs still breathing
Learn to swim
Before we drown
And sacrifice your pride to find a new beginning
Open up your ears
And eyes to see our minds are still in need of changing
Would we even care at all
Or be pulled under
I'm not giving up on anything
Long as I have lungs still breathing
Learn to swim
Before we drown

it's about not being so thick headed and realizing with out god in our lives we are going to drow in all the worlds crap!
House of Heroes has stunning lyrics throughout its songs (thanks to bassist AJ Babcock, who writes most of the lyrics), but this song is just freaking amazing lyrically. And on top of that, it's by House of Heroes, which makes it an awesome song by default. The vocal work is great, the melody works, and the musicianship is truly top notch.
