Drift
B.S.A. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Standing up at your door
With a bottle of wine
Can I come inside
Pretending you're not at home
But I ain't blind
I see the TV lights
Ain't been answering your texts
Picking up your calls
I ain't worried about the trip
But I worry bout the fall
And you got this look in your eyes
That made me scared
I'm glad I'm here
You know I got your back
I swear I'll never leave
Stay by your side
But give you space to breathe
Let go of all the pain
It'll set you free
Don't hold on to it all
Let it drift away
Feel it drift away
Let it drift away
Feel it drift away
I'd rather you cry on my chest
Then see you there laying to rest
Holding your mother's hand
Saying damn, your boy was the best
You've gotta let go of that stress
Cos you don't even know that your blessed
You've got so much life to give
But you keep it all inside of your head
C'mon
You know I got your back
I swear I'll never leave
Stay by your side
But give you space to breathe
Let go of all the pain
It'll set you free
Don't hold on to it all
Let it drift away
Feel it drift away
Let it drift away
Feel it drift away
You know I got your back
I swear I'll never leave
Stay by your side
But give you space to breathe
Let go of all the pain
It'll set you free
Don't hold on to it all
Let it drift away
Feel it drift away




Let it drift away
Feel it drift away
