Drop Me in the Water Lyrics

I dream of the seven signs
And darkness comes as no surprise
I got to get away
Got to get away from myself

I'm dancing in this devil's waltz
I'm dirty and I need your help
I got to get away
Got to get away from myself
Oh yeah

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak
This boat has a leak

I sleep to dream away time
My body doesn't feel like mine
I got to get away
Got to get away from myself

I'm dancing in this devil's waltz
I'm dirty and I need your help
I got to get away
Got to get away from myself
Oh yeah

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak
This boat has a leak

There's a long long way to go
A long long way to go

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak
This boat has a leak

Oh
Drop me in the water
Drop me in the water
Drop me in the water

Superman's Dead

I dream of the seven signs
And darkness comes as no surprise
I got to get away 
Got to get away from myself

I'm dancing in this devil's waltz
I'm dirty and I need your help
I got to get away 
Got to get away from myself
Oh yeah

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak
This boat has a leak

I sleep to dream away time
My body doesn't feel like mine
I got to get away
Got to get away from myself

I'm dancing in this devil's waltz
I'm dirty and I need your help
I got to get away 
Got to get away from myself
Oh yeah

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak
This boat has a leak

There's a long long way to go
A long long way to go

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak

Drop me in the water
Try to make me clean
Got this sinking feeling
Boat has a leak
This boat has a leak

Oh
Drop me in the water
Drop me in the water
Drop me in the water

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
