Theory of a Deadman - Drown [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

Directed by Rich Ragsdale

LYRICS
Ebb and flow, the sea is cold
But my blood comes to boil
I feel it filling up my lungs
The weight pulls me to soil

Current takes me, breath escapes me
Inducing coma, sleep
Close my eyes, I'm paralyzed
Finally at peace

Another sunny day
And I feel like getting in the water
Why did you have to let me go
Such a perfect way
To spend my time and swim out farther
Why did you have to let me drown

Drown
Drown

Lay there floating, body bloating
Skin turning to gray
I built my castle, the dirty rascal
Finally got his way

Waves roll in and clean my sins
Now everything is clear
I'm having fun, under the sun
Wishing you were here

1000 leagues, I live and breathe
Along the ocean floor
Now submersed, I join the cursed
To float here evermore

[danielthomas]

Frontman Tyler Connolly explained the song's meaning: "'Drown' is about being alone, the feeling of being washed away and left to your own devices, " he said. "We've all felt that way at some point in our lives; unable to stay afloat, we sink to the bottom which always seems easier in the end than fighting your way back to the surface."

[rogerhage]

This song is about how when we are buried in all turmoil and trouble how no one can ever save us from drowning in our misery everyone needs that someone who can pull them from the muck to love and cherish every aspect of their lives

[wadagod]

YES! This is probably the first Theory of a Deadman song I have listened to on repeat over 100 times. FUCKEN EXCELLENT SONG!

[jacobparham]

This is the theory of a Deadman we need.

[ronaldrogers]

These guys are a musical breath of fresh air.

[peffify]

that new darker sound of the band is awesome!!

[NegativeProd]

I hope they go back to this sound. There new album is way to pop radio.

[RockyRochford]

For me, this song is just mesmerizing. They some songs speak to us, well this one especially does, given the fact I nearly did lose my life to Drowning. I was a near Drowning victim and this song just captures the essence of the sensation for me perfectly. I love the lyrics to it and the sheer excellence of guitar and drum combo.

[godsmack]

This rips a page from the Alice in Chains notebook for sure.
It might be the best song they have made to date.

[tdueces]

This band is absolutely top notch. I have been listening for 20 years and they keep putting out fantastic music

[royjameson]

Can't believe this was 7 years ago🥺 damn time flies and music hasn't gotten better

[conorohalloran]

[jabbarmuhammad]

It sounds like this song has deeper meaning to it and I still like it

[johnoliver]

Dark song with a Dark video. Anyone else noticed Tyler seems to wear the same clothing for every video???

[anthonyvolk]

I love it when his voice distorts like when he says drown, do their other songs have that effect?

[SliceZero]

i've watched this video 3000 times, it's so good

[dr.greenthumb]

This is so different than their other songs i really like this sound

[futureleader]

By far the best....and i mean the best song this band has ever or dis-agree???

[bobbyrodriguez]

Damn this song is catchy! Everything about it is good! They seem to be getting better with each album. Have a feeling they're gonna be around a long time. Cheers from Texas!

[darrenfaul]
