Drown
London Topaz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Over again,
You hide cos you can't face that,
You're living this way
So I'm the one you blame
Over again,
Over again
I tried but I can't save it,
I'm tearing apart,
I never thought you'd be the one who makes me,
Broken inside
Lower than any moment in our memory
Why can't you see,
What it's doing to me
Why do you keep on holding me down
And you let me be,
Alone in the deep,
Knowing well that I would drown
I know you tried to break me,
Over again,
Over again
But I always thought you'd stay here
Though you put me through shame
And left me your pain
You moved on without saying,
That you were to blame
But it hurts all the same
I tried but I can't save it
Now I finally see the truth in your lies
I'm tearing apart,
I never thought you'd be the one who makes me,
Broken inside
Lower than any moment in our memory
Why can't you see,
What it's doing to me
Why do you keep on holding me down
And you let me be,
Alone in the deep,
Knowing well that I would drown
I was so scared to know
My failure would taunt me slowly
Thats why I just kept it all
To my self
I've tried to explain to you,
But I've been so blinded,
I'm trying to find a truth
That would just work for you,
But it should have been us
I'm tearing apart,
I never thought you'd be the one who makes me,
Broken inside
Lower than any moment in our memory
Why can't you see,
What it's doing to me
Why do you keep on holding me down
And you let me be,
Alone in the deep,
Knowing well that I would drown
The lyrics of London Topaz's song "Drown" touch on the emotions of heartbreak, betrayal, and the feeling of being trapped in a difficult situation. The lyrics suggest that the singer has been hurt many times, yet still tries to hold on to the relationship. However, despite the singer's repeated attempts to make their partner see the pain they are causing, they are still holding them back and pushing them further underwater. The lyrics convey a feeling of hopelessness and loneliness and the singer feels like they are drowning and just want to be left alone to sink.
The first verse of the song suggests that the singer feels like they are always made to bear the blame for the relationship's problems, even though it's not all their fault. The second verse suggests that the singer is torn apart by the relationship and feels broken on the inside. They feel like they are drowning in their own pain and cannot escape it. The chorus implores the partner to see what they are doing to the singer and to let them be, as they feel that they will ultimately drown in the relationship if they stay any longer.
The bridge of the song is a reflection of the singer's internal struggle to come to terms with what is happening in the relationship. The singer is trying to find a truth that works for both them and their partner, but ultimately realizes that it should have been them and their partner together.
