Drowning

I hear the phone ring
I'm lying awake
But I wait for the message
Even though I know I won't hear your voice anymore
What's this emptiness surrounding me
Is it too soon to tell
I'd rather be anywhere with you
Than trapped in my mind
Here in this hell
I'm drowning

It's a hopeless equation
You and me, me and you, divided by another
Or maybe I'm just crazy
To think we should have what we wish for
Well I heard from someone
Who heard from another
That she's got you so weak, you can barely stand
I know it's only hearsay
But please hear me when I say
i think we deserve another chance

Chorus:
I'm drowning
I'm down again
Why is it any fool could see
I gave you the best part of me
Drowning
Down again
Why is it any fool could see
You need me
And I need you

Let's get ourselves together
We can have what we wish for
If both believe we can find it
I am here with open arms
And I'm trying to get through to you
Just leave the past behind

Repeat Chorus
