A pained, downbeat track that staggers forward before finally opening into a bouncing rhythm, this song is reflective of its meaning. In the style of a drunk, obsessive trauma victim, the story told is one of personal betrayal from a young age, metaphoric and literal drowning, and eventually, explosive emotional release. Much like life, the track is long, but it's worth it if you go the distance.
'C Side Volume 2: Sinking Ships'
lyrics
Lies you won't remember
Lies you won't recall
You never hold me up
You'd never be my crutch
You pushed me down
Held me under
Fire fire fire fire
It's burning down your life
It's burning us alive
Lies
Your still refusal
Hold me down
Suffocate my numbers
You never help me up
You always break my trust
Your push me down
Hold me under
Fire fire fire fire
Fire fire fire fire
It's burning down your life
It's burning us alive
It's burning down your life
It's burning us alive
