Won't Drown - Foxing

Mouth open

For rain pinching

Your nose pinching

To wake yourself from hell

But your knees are

Glued to the floor

Anchored in fear

Roots in the wolves that spilt their

Life into you

Nativity of the botched pact boon

Screaming at your shoes

Cemented and accused

But they don’t want you to know that

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Mouth open

For days

Waiting for rain

Screaming to wake yourself from hell

But the sleep

So deep that it’s real

Your punches so weak

They miss when they land

And so you give

Until all that’s left

Are desperate cries

That fall on the deaf

But if you feel love

The hot molten trust

Rise up and wipe

That sleep from your eyes

And

Hold back your tears

Wax the pain

Pressure on the wound

If you fall

Caught like trout see that

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

And hold back the blood

Flowing through your nose

Pressure on the wound

If you fall

Caught like trout see that

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Hold back your tears

Wax the pain

Pressure on the wound

If you fall

Caught like trout see that

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

And hold back the blood

Flowing through your nose

Pressure on the wound

If you fall

Caught like trout see that

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running

Bravery won’t drown

So you keep the water running
