Drown
Hakos Baelz Lyrics

Descend again
Returning to a place of solitude and isolation

To the place alone
To the state of being completely by oneself

Enough's enough
I can no longer tolerate this

Never wanted this
This is something I never desired

Please no more words
I can't bear to hear any more explanations or justifications

No more suffering and blundering
No more enduring pain and making mistakes

Silence is all I need today
All I crave is complete silence in this moment

Time be still
I wish for time to stop progressing

Switching off the lights
Turning off all sources of illumination

Welcome in the abyss
Inviting the darkness and despair into one's life

Sinking in despair
Becoming consumed by hopelessness

But numb to the pain
Emotionally disconnected from the agony

Covering my ears
Shielding myself from any more noise or disturbances

The more the noise starts to hurt
As the sounds become increasingly painful

I finally chose to drown
I have made the decision to metaphorically submerge myself in overwhelming emotions

In depths I find
I discover solace and comfort in the depths of despair

Its easier to breathe
It becomes easier to find relief and ease in such circumstances

Spiraling down
Descending into a downward spiral

How'd it come to this?
How did everything end up like this?

Life's endless maze
Life feels like an eternal and perplexing labyrinth

Endless struggling
Perpetual and ceaseless battle

No escaping
There is no way to evade or avoid it

Locked away all my fears within
I have concealed and imprisoned all my fears internally

All is still
Everything falls into a state of tranquility and calmness

Reach into the dark
Reaching out towards the gloom and obscurity

Come, lie in the abyss
Join me in the depths of despair

Contract signed and sealed
An agreement made with no possibility of escape or release

One cannot be free
Freedom is unattainable

Opening my eyes
Gently reopening my eyes after closing them

Overflowing tears, oh they taste so sweet
Tears streaming uncontrollably, finding solace and pleasure in their release

It's easier just to drown
Opting for the simpler path of surrendering to the overwhelming emotions

Let me fade away
Allow me to gradually disappear

Hope is long gone
Any trace of hope has vanished completely

No such miracles to save us all
No extraordinary events to rescue and redeem everyone

Only way out I know is here
This is the only possible escape route I am aware of

Drown with me
Join me in succumbing to the overwhelming emotions

Silencing all sound
Suppressing every audible noise

Welcome to my abyss
Embracing and accepting the depths of my despair

Nowhere else to go
There are no other options or places to turn to

A prisoner of fate
Trapped and constrained by the course of destiny

"Someday you will stand"
A promise that one day everything will improve

But those words are empty and void
However, those words hold no substance or truth

All lies
They are all deceitful falsehoods

They told me to go and drown
They advised me to surrender to my overwhelming emotions

So let's fade away
Let us gradually vanish from existence

Let all disappear
Allow everything to be erased and cease to exist

Leaving behind
Abandoning everything behind

Nothing
Leaving nothing in its wake
