Sink
Manny Blu Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Still hear a slamming door
And the engine revving pedal on the floor
And the I don′t love you anymore shootin off of your lips
The way you're tearin′ up that gravel road
You took out my records and all your clothes
You got me thinking we're the kinda broke that'll never be fixed

Just the sound of the summer rain
Smack smacking on the window pane
Coming at me like a bullet train
With a whole lot of pain pain pain

I′m gonna sink to the bottom of this bottle of Jack
I′m gonna drink to your memory 'cause you′re never ever coming back
I'm gonna paint a broken heart on every white wall in this house
Round and round
Trying to drown
Pouring it out
Watching our love go down the sink
Watching it all go down the sink

The sunshine′s about to go black
It ain't the yellow thing that′s getting low
Let the bad times roll and dig a hole
'Till I'm deep down in the dark

I′m gonna sit here thinking about what I′ve done
I'm gonna keep on drinking about what I′ve done
I wanna know what you thinking about what I've done
I won′t really care anymore by the time I-

Sink to the bottom of this bottle of Jack
I'm gonna drink to your memory, ′cause you're never ever coming back
I'm gonna paint a broken heart on every white wall in this house
Round and round
Trying to drown
Pouring it out
Watching our love go down the sink
Watching it all go down the sink

Just the sound of the summer rain
Smack smacking on the window pane
Coming at me like a bullet train
With a whole lot of pain pain pain

I′m gonna sink to the bottom of this bottle of Jack
I′m gonna drink to your memory, 'cause you′re never ever coming back
I'm gonna paint a broken heart on every white wall in this house
Round and round
Trying to drown
Pouring it out
Round and round
Trying to drown
Pouring it out
Watching our love go down the sink





Watching it all go down the sink
Watching it all go down the sink

Watching our love go down the sink
I am watching everything we had together disappear before my eyes, like it's all going down the drain and there's nothing I can do to stop it


The sunshine's about to go black
The future looks bleak without you in my life, and my once bright and happy future is now turning dark and depressing


It ain't the yellow thing that's getting low
My depression and misery isn't caused just by the sun setting, but by the devastating loss of you in my life


Let the bad times roll and dig a hole
I feel like everything is going wrong in my life, and I am just digging a hole deeper and deeper for myself with my self-destructive behavior

I won't really care anymore by the time I-
I am so consumed with my emotions and my pain that I don't care about anything else, and I don't know if or when I will ever be able to move on from this loss


Watching it all go down the sink
I am watching everything that we had go down the drain, and I am powerless to stop it or to turn back time and fix our relationship
