Drown
Rain Check Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

On and on
The days will change
And everything
Still feels the same

I know that
I'll be fine
It seems pointless to talk about
It's a waste of time

Drifting out of conscientiousness
I don't want any part of this

On and on
The days will change
And everything
Still feels the same
On and on
The days will change
And everything
Still feels the same
Keep my head
Bombs away
To drown myself to numb the pain

(Everything still feels the same)
(Everything still feels the same)
(Everything still feels the same)
But everything still feels the same
Everything still feels the same

On and on
The days will change
And everything
Still feels the same
On and on
The days will change
And everything
Still feels the same
Keep my head




Bombs away
To drown myself to numb the pain

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Rain Check's song "Drown" showcase a sense of frustration and hopelessness in the face of the passing of time. The artist acknowledges that the days will change but everything still feels the same, indicating a sense of stagnation or lack of progress.

This resignation is further emphasized in the line "Drifting out of conscientiousness," suggesting a disconnect from their own thoughts and emotions.


The chorus repeats the idea that everything still feels the same, underscoring the artist's frustration with their lack of perceived progress or change. The line "keep my head, bombs away" suggests a desire to intentionally disconnect or numb oneself from these feelings, potentially through drug use or other destructive behaviors.


Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of someone who feels stuck and frustrated with the passage of time and their own lack of progress. Through introspective lines and repetition, the artist communicates a sense of resignation and a desire to escape.

[Verse]

I know that
I'll be fine
It seems pointless to talk about
A waste of time

Drifting out of consciousness
I don’t want any part of this

[Chorus]

On and on
The days will change
And everything
Still feels the same
On and on
The days will change
And everything
Still feels the same
Keep my head
Above the waves
Or drown myself to numb the pain


[Bridge]

I have no purpose
I'm worthless
I deserve this
(Everything still feels the same)
I feel weak
And I can't breathe
And I can’t sleep
(Everything still feels the same)
I tell myself it's worth it
No one's perfect
(Everything still feels the same)
Everything still feels the same
Everything still feels the same

[Chorus]

On and on
The days will change
And everything
Still feels the same
On and on
The days will change
And everything
Still feels the same
Keep my head
Above the waves
Or drown myself to numb the pain
