What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Hotel hobbies padding dawns hollow corridors
2
A typewriter cackles out a stream of memories
3
Dryin' out a conscience, evictin' a nightmare
4
Openin' the doors for the dreams to come home
5
We live out lives in private shells
6
Ignore our senses and fool ourselves
7
To thinkin' that out there there's someone else cares
8
Someone to answer all our prayers, all our prayers
9
Are we too far gone, are we so irresponsible?
10
Have we lost our balls or do we just not care?
11
We're terminal cases that keep takin' medicine?
12
Pretendin' the end isn't quite that near
13
We make futile gestures, act to the cameras
14
With our made up faces and PR smiles
15
And when the angel comes down, down to deliver us
16
We'll find out after all, we're only men of straw
17
But everything is still the same
18
Passin' the time and passin' the blame
19
We carry on in the same old way
20
We'll find out we left it too late one day
21
To say, what we meant to say
22
Just when you thought it was safe to go back to the water
23
Those problems seem to arise the ones you never really thought of
24
The feeling you get is similar to somethin' like drownin', hey
25
Out of your mind, you're out of your depth
26
You should have taken soundings
27
Clutchin' at straws
28
We're clutchin' at straws
29
We're clutchin' at straws
30
And if you ever come across us, don't give us your sympathy
31
You can buy us a drink and just shake our hands
32
And you'll recognize by the reflection in our eyes
33
That deep down inside, we're all one and the same
34
We're clutchin' at straws
35
We're still drownin'
36
Clutchin' at straws
37
We're still drownin', yeah
38
Clutchin' at straws, we're clutchin' at straws
39
Still drownin', clutchin' at straws
40
I'm still drownin'
41
We're clutchin' at straws
42
I'm still drownin'
43
We're clutchin' at straws
44
Still drownin'
45
We're clutchin' at straws
46
Still drownin'
47
We're clutchin' at straws
48
Still drownin'
49
We're clutchin' at straws
50
I'm still drownin', drownin'
51
Clutchin' at straws
52
Still drownin'
53
Clutchin' at straws
54
Still drownin'
55
Clutchin' at straws
56
Still drownin'
57
Clutchin' at straws
58
Still drownin'
59
Still, still, still drownin'
