How do I make myself feel better
I don’t know where to go
How do I not give in and begin to
Drown
Drown

And nobody there to make me feel good
I guess it is kinda funny
How lonely I am I have a plan to
Drown

What’s the point anymore
I’m sick to death of how I feel
Gonna eat myself to the core
What’s the point anymore
I’m sick to death of how I feel
Gonna eat myself to the core
A tasteless waste I just can’t wait to
Drown

The lyrics of the song "Drown" by Velvet Blush explores the feeling of loneliness and desperation. The singer of the song is feeling lost, alone and struggling to cope with their emotional turmoil. The opening lines, "Where do we go when we’re alone, How do I make myself feel better" indicate the desperation of the singer, who is grappling with intense emotions and doesn't know how to deal with them.
As the song progresses, the singer becomes increasingly overwhelmed by their emotions, to the point where they feel like they are drowning. The repetition of the word 'drown' in the chorus reinforces the feeling of suffocation, helplessness and entrapment the singer is experiencing. The lines "I haven’t got any money, And nobody there to make me feel good, I guess it is kinda funny, How lonely I am I have a plan to drown" reflect how the singer feels abandoned and left to deal with their problems on their own.
