Drown Like a Coin Lyrics

The darkest of darker that you ever known

The fear you assembled on your walk alone through the fire

The game your role desire

The longest of longing for peace and retreat

The promise upheld not to ever repeat or remember

The sting and the cold of December

You drown like a coin in a cold wishin' well

Flat on the bottom you lay

No grants nor wishes, just trouble to dwell

Too long overdue with your pay

The prettiest of pretty your eyes ever seen

The fair in her eyes and the honest of being so frail

The warm in her scent to inhale

The lowest of lower that you ever sank

The leave of the love in the bottle you drank for her only

The demons reside in your lonely

You drown like a coin in a cold wishin' well

Flat on the bottom you lay

No grants nor wishes, just trouble to dwell

Too long overdue with your pay

The closest of closure that you ever got

The bottle grown heavy you shake as you're not getting younger

The relentless being tired of the hunger

The coldest of colder that you'll ever feel

The bite of the wind taste the bitter of steel in your hand

The curse at the feel in command

Drown like a coin in a cold wishin' well

Flat on the bottom you lay

No grants nor wishes, just troubles to dwell

Too long overdue with your pay
