Lyrics Swimmers Can Drown - Kant Kino, I:Scintilla

Swimmers Can Drown

My timeline is a wire wrapped tight around my neck
Slowing apathy swells, give in to disconnect
Unworldly transmission fed to relive the shame
I don’t want a trial, I’ll take all the blame
A stone stolid council Speaks dogmatically
Bullets and anecdotes divided evenly
A chilling consciousness wakes me from the trance
It redefines my mind I’ll never have a chance
Nothing, giving, unworthy offering
Losing, feeling like a bird with clipped wings
Sinking feeling, pushing down on me
Swimming, drowning, in a toxic red sea
The blow shatters my remission
Fracture patterns show through my skin
Please understand this was not my plan
No, I gotta know
Does it matter where my heart’s been
Fracture patterns show through my skin
Please understand this was not my plan
No, I gotta go
Weightless restraint floating away, evaporating
The impulse grows in clouds below, cascading
Dripping whisper, falling faster, raining
Raining
Raining
RAINING
