all been done before
it's all been done before
not listening any more
i'm not listening any more
i'm drowning
you breathe easy
you can't hear me

it's all for the sake of drowning
why aren't you listening anymore?
it's all for the sake of a mystery
i will be listening from the ocean floor
(all for the sake of drowning. why don't you listen. wide on the ocean floor)

last place i want to be
last place i want to be
half way in the water
half on the beach
i've been beaten at my own game
what will i find?

never see the sunrise
never see the sunset anymore
never see anything exept dead weight on the ocean floor
(sunrise. sunset. daylight's far away. real life's dead weight on the ocean floor)

there's a martyr in my bones
a ripple skipping stones
sinking slowly home
sinking slowly home

and i'm drowning
you can't see me
you breathe easy

for the sake of drowning
why aren't you listening anymore?
all for the sake of a mystery
why aren't you listening, why aren't you listening anymore?
(all for the sake of drowning. why don't you listen. wide on the ocean floor)

it's all for the sake of drowning
why aren't you listening anymore?
it's all for the sake of a mystery
i will be listening from the ocean 
(all for the sake of drowning. why don't you listen. wide on the ocean floor)

from the ocean floor
what will i find if i'm not searching
if i'm not searching anymore
it's all for the sake of drowning
what will i find if i'm not searching?
if i'm not searching
if i'm not searching
if i'm not searching
