Front Porch Step - Drown [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Chorus]
I'm so tired of the rain falling softly on the ground
Just enough to get my feet wet but not enough to let me drown
I've been laying in my bed, wishing I had never woken
Begging God to rid my head of every word you've ever spoken

Broke my knuckles on the wall
Cause I thought about the call
When you said you'd always love me
Do you not tell the truth at all

Well if I ever cross your mind
Make sure you write down the times
So I will know the moments I was eating you alive

[Verse 1]
And I now I lay here, waiting with the hope that
I might find some sleep
I need some sleep tonight
Cause I've been waiting on your call
And I know it will never come
But I'm still waiting by the phone

And don't you dare (don't you dare)
Say you ever loved me or even tell me that you care
Cause you knew what you were doing and you know just what you've done
How dare you say miss me with your spit still on his tongue

I am broken, I am beaten, I'm mistreated and I'm torn
I am cold with no direction but I'm lost without your warmth
I'm trying hard to find some hope that I might get the chance to breathe
Get off my mind, give back my heart and get the fuck away from me

[Chorus]
Cause I'm so tired of the rain falling softly on the ground
Just enough to get my feet wet but not enough to let me drown
I've been laying in my bed, wishing I had never woken
Begging God to rid my head of every word you've ever spoken

Broke my knuckles on the wall
Because I thought about the call
When you said you'd always love me
Do you not tell the truth at all

So if I ever cross your mind
Make sure you write down the times
So I will know the moments I was eating you alive

[Verse 2]
I know I couldn't give you much
But I know I gave my best
You were always my princess
And now he's sliding off your dress
And I know I gave the world everything I ever had
Johnny Cash said love would burn
I never thought it'd hurt this bad

[Chorus}
Cause I'm so tired of the rain falling softly on the ground
Just enough to get my feet wet but not enough to let me drown
I've been laying in my bed, wishing I had never woken
Begging God to rid my head of every word you've ever spoken

Broke my knuckles on the wall
Because I thought about the call
When you said you'd always love me
Do you not tell the truth at all

So if I ever cross your mind
Make sure you write down the times
So I will know the moments I was eating you alive

[Verse 3]
You are the itch that's on my back
You are the gum under my shoe
You are the horrors of my past
You are the chill that haunts the room
You are the creaking on my steps
You are cancer you are plague
You are regret, you are disease
I wish that you would go away

[Chorus]
Cause I'm so tired of the rain falling softly on the ground
Just enough to get my feet wet but not enough to let me drown
I've been laying in my bed, wishing I had never woken
Begging God to rid my head of every word you've ever spoken

Broke my knuckles on the wall
Because I thought about the call
When you said you'd always love me
Do you not tell the truth at all

So if I ever cross your mind
Make sure you write down the times
So I will know the moments I was eating you alive
