Drown
Alicks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The feel I felt inside your fkng breathe
Before the night has lost again again
Too many times have I been lied from them
To feel my ways
Taken to another one
And I become
Like I can make them come
Back to me again
The cloud has filled the lake
Laid me down again
Eyes upon
Words cannot express
The feel I felt inside your fkng breathe
Before the night has lost again again
Too many times have I been lied from them
To feel.
Taken to another one
And I become
Bad for you, my one,
Like I can make them come
Back to me again
The cloud has filled the lake
Laid me down again
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,
(Words cannot

The lyrics to Alicks's song "Drown" express a feeling of vulnerability and betrayal in a past relationship. The first verse talks about how words cannot fully convey the intense emotions felt by the singer when they were with their former lover. The line "Before the night has lost again again" suggests that the relationship was fleeting and may have been a repeated pattern for the singer.
The second verse describes how the singer has been "lied to" by past partners, making it difficult for them to trust their own feelings and instincts. The repeated phrase "Taken to another one" suggests that the singer has experienced this pattern of betrayal before. However, they still hold onto the hope that they can "make them come back to me again," even though they know it may not be healthy for them.
The chorus repeats the opening lines, emphasizing the depth of feeling that the singer experienced in this relationship. The line "The cloud has filled the lake" is a metaphor for the overwhelming emotions that the singer is struggling to deal with.
Overall, the song is a powerful portrayal of the pain and confusion that can come with relationships that are difficult to let go of, even when we know they are not good for us.

Words cannot express
The depth of my emotion cannot be fully articulated
The feel I felt inside your fkng breathe
I can't describe the intense connection we shared
Before the night has lost again again
Before time slips away once more
Too many times have I been lied from them
I've been hurt by dishonest people too many times
To feel my ways
To understand my perspective
Taken to another one
Led away by someone else
And I become
I transform
Bad for you, my one,
Harmful to the one I love
Like I can make them come
I believe I can bring them back to me
Back to me again
Into my arms once more
The cloud has filled the lake
The water is now obscured by mist
Laid me down again
I am brought low once more
Eyes upon
All eyes watching me
I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I,

on help me out
It appears the meaning stems from being in the position of not knowing where to go or what to do. All other options have been exhausted, maybe a drug or alcohol problem. But the need to repeatedly ask for help in such a melancholic slow tempo way leads me to think it's substance abuse.
