How does it feel Blessed to receive Be modest and forgiving How does it feel You can try to hate me But you′re only hurting yourself
Drifting in your shady memories Where to go when sorrow breeds Let the fear run through Breath in black and stiffling air All those words they disappear No need to rest it′s too early to die
You don′t have to say Why rue for that day When you′ve open up your eyes again Now it′s your fate Face your heart ache You wish to make it unreal
Drifting, drifting, drifting away. I got myself a mansion, then I gave it away. It′s not the world that′s heavy, just the things that you save. And I′m drifting, drifting away.
Drifting, drifting, drifting along. I rid myself of worries, and the worries were gone. I only run when I want to and I sleep like a dog. I′m just drifting, drifting along.
The suitcoats say, "There is money to be made." They get so damn excited, but I guess it′s their way. My road it may be lonely just because it′s not paved. It′s good for drifting, drifting away.
The suitcoats say, "There is money to be made." They get so damn excited, nothing gets in their way My road it may be lonely just because it′s not paved. It′s good for drifting, drifting away.
Drifting, drifting, drifting, uh huh. I feel like going back there, but never for long. I sometimes wonder if they know that I′m gone. I′m just drifting, drifting along. Drifting, drifting along. Drifting, drifting along.
I was born a rambling man An′ I never got the chance To settle down an′ get a hold on love Takin′ air an′ movin′ around Is all I can see that I′m doin′ An′ it is bringin′ me down Drivin′ on a highway going nowhere Desolation destination Guess I′ll find it somewhere I know if there′s trouble I ain′t takin′ the blame That′s why I keep movin′ So nobody knows my name
Born a loser I′m beyond the law Women behind me Never can find me They can never get together What I′ve been here for Cos I′m a drifter
Your voice is adrift I can′t expect it to sing to me As if I was the only one
I′ll follow you The leaf that′s following the sun When will my weight be too much for you? When will these ideas really be my own? Cause this moment keeps on moving We were never meant to hold on
This was a scene worth waking up for When I woke up You planted me in my own body Don′t know why But somehow it just feels so wrong When you′re sad I will be lonely But when you rise again I′ll become the sun I will shine down upon you As if you were the only one
Your voice is your own, I can′t protect it You′ll have to sing A verse no one has ever known
Don′t be afraid Cause no one ever sings alone Your way will never be too much for me Your ideas have always been your own And this moment keeps on moving We were never meant to hold on
When I look into your eyes, I can see Such a sad man in disguise Waiting, wishing, dreaming, drifting from me, I can see Hurts my heart to see you cry Waiting, wishing, dreaming, drifting from me
I don′t know you anymore, I wish I knew what′s wrong Can′t we try to slam that door, start a brand new song
I know you′re lonely and you cry, wondering why I know you′re lonely but if once, you could help me understand What it takes to be a man Look back on what you′ve said, and the life you′ve led Is it what you dreamed when you were young like me
And now it′s time you took something back just for the sake of your mind, your mind, your mind When I look into your eyes, I can see Life has buried you alive Waiting, wishing, dreaming, drifting from me You can′t breathe Heart as big as ocean′s wide Waiting, wishing, dreaming, drifting from me
We′ll take a trip for two around the world. We′ll have a bird′s eye view of every single nation. I could be what you wanted. I could be what you needed. We′re drifting apart ′cause we all do, and skies seem blue. Time has two seperate hands and I wonder Where we stand. We′re drifting apart like people do. We′re drifting apart cause we all do. I′ll gravitate toward the only girl. So with the wind we blew and now we′re on a mission. I could be what you wanted. I could be what you needed. We′re drifting apart ′cause we all do, and skies seem blue. Time has two seperate hands and I wonder Where we stand. We′re drifting apart like people do. We′re drifting apart cause we all do.
I drift away, away from you, cause I was so busy with myself, the only one I’ve cared was me, I was so blind, would I find a way back to you, would you take me back, would you still know me, or did we became strangers, is there still something between us, are we the same like yesterday? I feel like drifting away, do we really live in the same world? or do I live in mine and you in yours, would I find a way back on your course, would I be the person you used to know, or just someone you don’t know? like a person you’ve never seen before, would you let me in when I’m knocking at your door, would you let me in?
I was so busy with myself, now I drift away, away from you, I was so busy with myself, now I can’t find a way, a way back to you.
I’m drifting away would I find a way back? so many things changed, everything is strange now, two people different point of view, we used to walk together, now we are like two different pairs of shoes, we used to talk together now we ain’t got something to say and all because I’m drifting away, I drift away from where I used to stay, would you take me back, if I come back someday? or would you lock the door, would it be like it was before? before I decided to go, would you be the person I used to know, or just someone I don’t know, like a person I’ve never seen before, would you let me in when I’m knocking at your door, would you let me in?
I was so busy with myself, now I drift away, away from you, I was so busy with myself, now I can’t find a way, a way back to you.
I... I!
I was so busy with myself now I drift away, away from you, I was so busy with my self now I can’t find a way, a way back to you, a way back to you
I was so busy with myself, now I drift away, away from you, I was so busy with myself, now I can’t find a way, a way back to you.
back - back to you, back to you, back to you - I drift away, back - back to you, back to you, back to you - I drift away
Drift and die Forgotten thoughts of yesterdays Through my eyes I see the past
Well I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know why I believe I believe I believe in the truth, from inside Go away go away go away from me Leave me alone Ignorance spreads lies How much will money bye Well I’ll take my time as I drift and die
Unwanted live my life a shame Who’s to blame for my mistakes
Chorus As I drift and die x 2
Ignorance spreads lies
How muc h will money bye Well I’ll take my time As I drift and die x 5
We′re rotten fruit We′re damaged goods What the hell we′ve got nothing more to lose One burst and we will probably crumble We′re backdrifting This far but no further I′m hanging off a branch I′m teetering on a breaker Honey sweets so fall asleep I′m backsliding You fell into our arms You fell into our arms We tried but there was nothing we could do Nothing we could do All evidence has been buried All tapes have been erased But your footsteps give you away So you′re backtracking Oh oh oh You fell into our arms You fell into our arms We tried but there was nothing we could do Nothing we could do You fell into our You fell into a We′re rotten fruit We′re damaged goods What the hell we′ve got nothing more to lose One burst and we will probably crumble We′re backdrifters
