Drowning on Dry Land

Lyrics: GARP Music: GARP I don’t know how to stay But I’m still here today I’m drowning on dry land But I’m still breathing
I don’t know what to say But I made it through the day I’m drowning on dry land But I’m still breathing
I wake up every morning And I don’t know why I wanted to disappear But I opened up my eyes
The sunlight through the curtain Cuts right through my chest I carry what I’m feeling And I never get to rest
I hear the people laughing Somewhere far away Same world, different planet I don’t know what to say
Standing behind glass Where nobody sees me cry I know you’re standing there too And I know you wonder why
No one has to see it For the pain to still be real No one has to name it For us to know how it feels
I don’t want to disappear But I don’t know how to stay Stuck somewhere in the in-between Trying to make it through the day
You’re not alone, you’re not alone Even when nobody sees I’m drowning on dry land But I’m still here, still breathing
No word for what we’re feeling No easy way to say But you and I keep waking up And we’re still here today
Verse 2 I can’t even cry now My eyes have run so dry Counting ceiling cracks Just to get me through the night
I don’t need a crowd I don’t need a sound I just need one person Before I hit the ground
If you feel it too Then hear me when I say You don’t have to explain it I already know the weight
Nobody sees the glass You’re standing behind But I see you And I’ve been there More times than I can count
You don’t have to be strong You don’t have to be fine Just take one more breath And I’ll take one with mine
Chorus I don’t want to disappear But I don’t know how to stay Stuck somewhere in the in-between Trying to make it through the day
You’re not alone, you’re not alone Even when nobody sees I’m drowning on dry land But I’m still here, still breathing
No word for what we’re feeling No easy way to say But you and I keep waking up And we’re still here today
I never wanted it to end I just wanted rest One moment free From this weight inside my chest
And if that’s you right now Hold on, hold on You don’t have to be okay You just have to hold on
I won’t tell you it’s easy I won’t tell you not to cry I won’t say I understand Every reason, every why
But if you’re still here breathing After everything tonight Then maybe that is something Maybe that’s a little light
I don’t want to disappear But I’m learning how to stay Still somewhere in the in-between But I made it through today
You’re not alone, you’re not alone Even when nobody sees I’m drowning on dry land But I’m still here, still breathing
Maybe someday all this pain Will find a different shape Maybe someday we will cry And finally feel okay
You’re not alone, you’re not alone That’s the only truth I need We’re drowning on dry land But we’re still here, still breathing
You’re still here Still breathing That’s enough That’s enough
I see you In the dark Still drowning But we’re here
Still breathing Still breathing We’re still here Today
