Lời bài hát: REM. New Adventures In Hi-Fi. Undertow.

I know what I wanted
I know what I wanted
I know how I wanted this to be

You go down to the water
Drink down on the water
Fly up off the water, leave it be

But this is not my dream, sister
It is cold in heaven
I?m not sprouting wings

I?m drowning
Me
I?m drowning
Me

Brother, can you see those birds?
But they don?t look to heaven
And they don?t need religion, they can see

They go down to the water
Drink down of the water
Fly up off the water, leave it be

But this is not my time, sister
It is cold in heaven
And no one?s coming after me

I?m drowning
Me
I?m drowning
Me

You know I am tired
Cold and bony tired
Nothing?s gonna save me, I can see

I can?t say I?m fearful
I can?t say I?m not afraid
I am not resisting, I can see

I don?t need a heaven
I don?t need religion
I am in the place where I should be

I am breathing water
I am breathing water
You know a body?s got to breathe

I?m drowning
Me
I?m drowning
Me

I?m drowning
Me
I?m drowning
Me
