Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Exhale my last breath to be
Closer to the edge
Inviting death to me
Drowning, drowning
Exhale my last breath to be
Closer to the edge
Inviting death to me
Sleeping the
Days away
Lay my head
In my grave
Who cares if
I’m awake
Pretending
Pretend to be ok
Wake up
Your brother is calling
Wake up
Your father is calling
Wake up
Your family’s calling
Where are you
Where are you
Wake up
Your brother is calling
Wake up
Your father is calling
Wake up
Your friends are all calling
Where are you
Where are you
Drowning, drowning
Exhale my last breath to be
Closer to the edge
Inviting death to me
Drowning, drowning
Exhale my last breath to be
Closer to the edge
Inviting death to me
Hear voices
From below
I’ve been here
Long ago
Will you catch
If I fall
Too late to
Too late to turn around
Wake up
Your brother is calling
Wake up
Your father is calling
Wake up
Your Family’s calling
Where are you
Where are you
Wake up
Your brother is calling
Wake up
Your father is calling
Wake up
Your friends are all calling
Where are you
Where are you
Drowning, drowning
Exhale my last breath to be
Closer to the edge
Inviting death to me
Drowning, drowning
Exhale my last breath to be
Closer to the edge
Inviting death to me
Slip into this coma
Never to wake up again
Forever I’ll be dreaming
Rapid will be my descent
Falling ever deeper
Crash into black pools below
I fell into a dream
I fell into a
Dream
A dream
A dream
Fell into a
Dream
A dream
A dream
Fell into a
Exhale my last breath to be
Closer to the edge
Inviting death to me
Drowning, drowning
Exhale my last breath to be
Closer to the edge
Inviting death to me
The lyrics of Savage-C's song "Drowning" depict a sense of hopelessness and a desire for an escape from pain and suffering. The repetition of the word "drowning" emphasizes the feeling of being overwhelmed and trapped. The line "exhale my last breath to be closer to the edge, inviting death to me" suggests a longing for an end to the emotional turmoil, even if it means surrendering to death.
The lyrics also mention sleeping the days away, burying oneself in a metaphorical grave, and pretending to be okay. These lines reveal a sense of detachment from reality and an attempt to disguise one's true feelings. The chorus's repetition of the phrase "Wake up, your brother/father/family is calling" underscores the need for connection and support, but the repeated question of "where are you?" suggests a feeling of isolation and disconnection from loved ones.
Towards the end of the song, the lyrics take a darker turn, with references to falling into a coma and never waking up again. The lines "forever I'll be dreaming" and "rapid will be my descent" evoke a sense of surrender and acceptance of a tragic fate. The final repetition of the word "dream" underscores the desire to escape from reality and find solace in a perpetual state of unconsciousness.
Overall, "Drowning" portrays a deep emotional struggle and a longing for release, illustrating the complex and raw emotions experienced by someone who feels overwhelmed by life.
