    Story Behind the Song
    This was a great song when it was written in 1992, and is even better now that it's been properly recorded. It's based on another one of my "terrific" nightmares (I really need professional help). It's was about literally drowning in a lake near my parents home (really in a sea of despair and depression) while the main cause of these feelings (ex-love) observes the whole event in horrible glee.

    Lyrics
    you watch me slip beneath the surface
    as the water pulls me down
    you're standing watching as if in sadness
    but on your face where is the frown?
    why do i see you smiling
    as i'm sinking in a spiral, round and round
    why don't i see you crying as i drown?

    the water cold as winter's night
    while you watch me die in your delight
    why are you amused and not in fright
    as i drown?

    drowning, farther and farther i go
    drowning and spiralling to the depths below
    drowning in memories of yesterday
    drowning the only way

    You watch me struggle in paradise
    as the water pulls me under
    you're standing distant and so pensive
    as the water pulls me down
    just as your tears turn to raindrops
    it's your laughter that becomes thunder
    why do i see you smiling as i drown?
