Running from the water And everybody's yelling Yelling that they're coming But I don't see a single soul They're all so busy yelling Not one of them is hearing The hissing from the bottom of the boat I got some feelings up my sleeve I got a compass in my arm I got a needle in my heart It's gonna tell us where we are SXSW Two miles from town I can't get out I can't look down If you can hear If you're around I'm over here I'm over here I'm watching everyone I love Drowning in the sound You worship the sun But the moon's in the way So get your armaments out She's always looking for trouble She's gonna get what's been coming to her She's switching the tides and we can't have that shit around The television they're blaring out a warning: That our natural state is drowning That our natural state is burning And you're trying to help And you're clicking for change And you're calling it out And you're adding your name And you're marching for peace But you're lynching the bitch That got up in your face How else they gonna to take you seriously? SXSW Two miles from town I can't get out I can't look down If you can hear If you're around I'm over here I'm over here I'm watching Everyone I love Drowning in the sound And your body is a temple And the temple is a prison And the prison's overcrowded And the inmates know it's flooding And the body politic is getting sicker by the minute And the media's not fake It's just very Inconvenient Do you ever feel like this should be officially the end? And that you should be the one to do the ending but you can't? And do you ever feel that everyone is slowly letting go Do you ever feel that... that incredibly alone? And they're saying not to panic And it's like a broken record As if anybody knows what that is And they're saying that we'll manage It's the hottest one on record And they're saying that that's just the way it is Now I can taste it coming I can taste it with my tongue And my children are so heavy But I pick them up & run And I know I'll have to swim soon When the water gets too high I'll keep on holding them above me I'll keep on holding them & crying SXSW Two miles from town I can't get out I can't look down If you can hear If you're around I'm over here I'm over here I'm watching Everyone I love.... Drowning in the sound.
