Drown In My Mind
Story Untold Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Another day here
Another night there
Another mistake
I just wanna forget
It's been this way for the last two years
I can't seem to stop

Don't know how I feel
Don't know if I'm scared
All I know's I've got so many regrets
It's been this way for the last two years
I can't seem to stop

No, I can't do this on my own
Please tell me you won't go
And leave me alone and cold
Don't let me drown in my mind

Sometimes I'm alright
Sometimes I just hide
Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever make it
It's been this way for, for too many years
I can't seem to stop

Maybe I'll draw the line
Maybe after some time
I'll be okay for more than a weekend
And that's what I should've told myself for the last two years
I can't seem to stop

No, I can't do this on my own
Please tell me you won't go
And leave me alone and cold
Don't let me drown

No, I can't do this on my own
Please tell me you won't go
And leave me alone and cold
Don't let me drown in my mind

Someday I'll find the answer
If you take this chance on me
I won't let you down

Just don't let me drown
Someday I'll find the answer
If you take, I you take this chance on me
I won't let you down
Just don't let me drown

I can't do this on my own

Please tell me you won't go
And leave me alone and cold
Don't let me drown in my mind (don't)
Don't let me drown (woh oh oh)
Don't leave me alone and cold




If I drift away this time
Don't let me drown in my mind

Drown In My Mind is the song that was the easiest to write for me. It's just so personal to me and also felt like a huge relief. The past few years of my life have been hard for me on a personal level and back when I had my hard times, I wish I would've had a song like that to listen to that would've basically told me "it's ok to feel like that". Musically I think it sets the mood for the whole album. Our album that is called "Waves" is definitly more mature lyrically and musically than what we put out in the past. I think it's the perfect balance between catchy fun pop punk songs and more mature heartfelt songs. We hope you guys are gonna dig the songs as much as we do!

@Cdwhk

Janick Thibault i was sure that this song would have been amazing before opening the video.. and i was right

@JavierLopez-cy2tx

Janick Thibault you are great guys, pop punk bands are always the same nowadays and you are trying something different, I really like it

@ludosteyt

Thanks for this one dudes! I definitely can’t wait to hear Waves!

@Jakebudd25

I already love this song.... I follow Janick since 2011 and now I'm so happy that his music is finally appreciated. Now all I need is a concert in my country, Italy... Can't wait to see you and the rest of the band

@itsstark2546

I love this song, such a perfect mix of Amasic and Story Untold. And I also love how they just rescue Janick and he walks it off like it's no big deal he was unconscious

@Cyrona1

This song touches me on a very personal level. I have struggled against my own body for the past few years. I honestly can't believe that this sums up what I was feeling so perfectly. I was drowning in my own mind because my body held me hostage, whether it be stuck at home or in a hospital bed. But the people I needed didn't leave me alone to fight things by myself. In the end, I made it through because I had people to keep me going. So thank you for this song and how it perfectly matches up with my own experiences.
