Drain It All Away

Drain out all the agony Help me fulfill my destiny Catch the waves…it’s coming from all directions And wipe that frown… I’m trying not to break away…in front of you, I’d rather stay But it seems like…the clouds decide to fade I’m dying every day…I’m making time to survive this day I’m drying… I turned out to be a hideous shade I’m releasing the sorrow… clinging on to gloom... Your affection and glory Set me free from despondency Stand up and face the emotion – your heart mends my infections And don’t weigh me down… I’m trying not to break out…but it sparkles in my bloodshot eyes My sorrow is exposing… but you’re still willing to stay I’m caught in midair…I’m a slave, pursuing my demise I’m shriveling…I embrace your departure…I’m wasting away… I’m soaking up the sorrow…poisoning my bloom…
