I've got a drownin' sickness
I gotta breathe and fix this
I gotta get me outta here
With every time I feel this
I fight to not reveal this
I hide the hand that shakes in fear

Heavy in this ocean all around
Tired of swimmin' in this sickness I have found

Wake me when I drown
Breathe it in to sleep again

I've got a drownin' sickness
I gotta breathe and fix this
I gotta get me outta here
I'd try to verbalize this
If I could realize this
So many things I can’t see clear

Heavy in this ocean all around
Tired of swimmin' in this sickness I have found

Wake me when I drown
Breathe it in to sleep again
Wake me when I drown
Shed my skin- I'm born again

I've got a drownin' sickness
I gotta breathe and fix this

I've got a drownin' sickness
I gotta breathe and fix this
I gotta get me outta here

Wake me when I drown
Breathe it in to sleep again
Wake me when I drown
Shed my skin - I'm born again
