lyrics

It's very old water, it's an even older bridge

It wasn't ever mine and it surely wasn't his

Construction has been stalling, they might just tear it down

By this point we see it clear, it's either sink or drown


Let's go drowning, tonight we're crawling

Let's go crawling, tonight we're sinking

We are wounded, bruised, sore and confused

Forgotten, rotten, all but caught in

The terms of the collapse


Happenstance happened fast

Your last chance

Just a fumbled pass

The flood, over capacity

The rush of bolt­breaking enmity

Culmination of suspension in a heap

The cord of distance too heavy to upkeep

The gates break fast


The chase across the water was a heavy sinking line

The way that I outran you clearly swallowed up the prize

One thing that I oft forget is angels ain't so kind

As starving people think, it's when you try to drown you never sink
 

I'm drowning, tonight I'm crawling

I'm sinking, tonight I'm falling

I am wounded, bruised, sore and confused

Forgotten, rotten, all but caught in

The terms of the collapse


Design flaws, 9 percent a cause

Floods and mud 53 above

Collision, overload,

Picking up on the rest of the untold

Deterioration, cracks in the foundation

The gates break fast
 

It's very old water, it's an even older bridge

It wasn't ever mine and it surely wasn't his

Construction has been stalling, they might just tear it down

By this point we see it clear, it's either sink or drown
 

Let's go drowning, tonight we're drowning

Let's go drowning, tonight we're sinking
