Lyrics for Drowned

There are men high up there fishing Haven't seen quite enough of the world I ain't seen a sign of my heroes And I'm still diving down for pearls Oh, let me flow into the ocean Yeah, yet me get back to the sea Let me be stormy and let me be calm Let the tide in, and set me free I'm flowing under bridges Then flying through the sky I'm traveling down cold metal Just a tear in baby's eye Oh, let me flow into the ocean Oh, let me get back to the sea Let me be stormy and let me be calm Let the tide in and set me free Set me free I am not the actor This can't be the scene But I am in the water As far as I can see Ooh, I'm remembering distant memories Recalling other names Rippling over canyons And boiling in the train Oh, let me flow into the ocean Let me get back to the sea Let me be stormy and let me be calm Let the tide in and set me free Set me free Set me free I wanna drown In cold water
