I'm a long forgotten lover With a simple fate to suffer While I'm taunted by this voice inside my head A little boy uncovered With ambition to get tougher While I'm haunted by this ghost under my bed A long forgotten daughter Long forgotten by my father So I walk around all dressed in red A million dollars underwater With the chance to be discovered But I think I'd rather drown instead (Instead, yeah I think I'd rather drown I think I'd rather drown I think I'd rather drown instead) And I try so hard Not to expose my heart And I try so hard Not to expose my heart But this just hasn't been my week I've never wanted any more than For someone to understand me And I try so hard (I try) not to expose my heart But I think I'd rather drown I think I'd rather drown I think I'd rather drown instead Yeah, I think I'd rather drown I think I'd rather drown I think I'd rather drown instead And I try so hard Not to expose my heart
