(lyrics)
i know you know this hits me low
cant you see what its done to me(X2)
(chorus)
this is my last calling of my vivid dreams
i just cant stop falling - back to keep me crawling
this is my last calling - its so hard to say 
in this world i call out with my sickened dreams
***
inside, the pain i feel is real - outside, the skin is dead(X2)

Drowning in the Wake -- Vivid(debut single)

(lyrics)
SOMEONE CALL AN AMBULANCE!! (right now)
suicide - it's a touchy subject
cliched over and over again..
all the torn hearts, listen please
i speak these words from my heart
not from my eyes - not from these eyes
***
remember when you all would be punsihed
because one person wouldnt admit to their fault
it's like that but better - its like that but worse (but worse)
**
there's people in this room wishing for death - shouting at the sky
in search of answers( ANSWERS!!!)
The truth is we dont know who those people are..
ALL WE CAN DO IS PREACH
of a better future - preach
to a sea of people - preach
in hopes that the dea will one day live again..
***
let - go of the trigger - untie the noose
spit out the pills - cut yourself loose..
hold on..
** 
i cant change your mind and im sorry
in the end you're still in charge of what happens
tears - over - a - a body - your body
***
you got one life - make it last

Drowning in the Wake - Mouseville

(lyrics)
stranded - lost at sea - waves reach out for me
in the night i see the monster surfacing
***
where do i go?
waves - dragging me down - so far below
hope - is unknown
look - look in my eyes - dont you despise
this - life i live
dont - dont you fail me - please, set me free
god - please save me
get what you want - get what you need
i sense the monster rising up beneath me
***
what do you want from me
i will give anything - all of my apathy
for you to let me be
i will not die alone - i will not rot to the bone
i will find my way home - fight through the parts unknown
i am not fucking scared - i am so unaware
even the faceless stare - even when im not there
i made it home..


Drowning In The Wake --- Waves

Drowning in the Wake - Here's to a son

(lyrics)
i could never save you because you're in too deep
feel the maggots eat you and hear the people scream
screaming at the glory - the beauty of your fate
and the day that we abandoned your unrelenting hate
you are just liar - fall victim to the fire
end this disease of the human race
revive the broken and cherish this place
channel the pain though it's all the same
all that you love has been carried away
see the fire in the clock - burning, time is up in flames
eternal depths of pain await you - all deserve this wretched place
look at yourself in the mirror. tell me, what do you see?
nothing more than a maggot trying to be just like me
all deserve this horrid, wretched place
those who can't love will be maimed
i could never save you because you're in too deep
feel the maggots eat you and hear the people scream
screaming at the glory - the beauty of your fate
and the day that we abandoned your unrelenting hate
you are just a liar - fall victim to the fire now
you are just a stain - nothing but decay laid out on the table
you and i will never ever be the same
when will you stop and realize
turn your stupid face and do not leave a trace of your worthless being
paint the windows black cuz we're not coming back again
freedom from all our sins..

Drowning In The Wake -- Reflections

(lyrics)
i am your lord so bow down to me
try to crucify me - i can not bleed
cuz who am i? im dead inside
no one cried at my funeral site
you cant take this life - cuz it's fading to fast
nevertheless you've met your match
may the blood of humanity spill
dont try and fight, i will break your will
i'll crush your bones - i was born to kill
i was born to kill ... kill .. kill you(oh yeah)
kill you ..
watch humanity cease to exist - i'll grab its neck and i'll fuckin twist
your life will end by the slit of your wrist
then i'll strike you down with my fucking fist
(oh yeah) i want you dead

Drowning in the Wake -- Dance with Death

(lyrics)
i will not bow down - i will speak out loud(x2)

you will feel my pain -it will make you change(x2)

[chorus]
this is my departure as we drift further away... please stay
only he can see what's inside of me .. we .. will see

Drowning in the Wake -- Departure

Drowning in the Wake -- Drowning

this began with a single bloodshed - hung then slit, pouring from you.. you (come on)
why are we screaming for silence - it is our time to bleed.. bleed..bleed
this began with a single bloodshed - hung then slit, pouring from you
why are we screaming for silence? it is our time to bleed
we are a null crumb of existence torn from the bread of life
eat it up and drink the sorrow that comes with a price of life
price of life ... 
blood transfusion - much confusion - can you break through the illusion?
break inside but do not die 
do all you can not to waste all your nine lives
we all bleed together now... 

Drowning in the Wake --  We all Bleed
