Deep End Lyrics

[Verse 1: Brian Burkheiser]
If you had it all would it be enough?
Can you find your way and still be lost?
I write songs about being someone else
That say "fuck the world" but not "I need help"


[Pre-Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]
Yeah, everybody tells me it's alright
Everybody tells me I'll be fine
Everything is not o-fucking-kay
Oh, but they can't tell me why
I put the picture on the shelf
Leave the memory behind
But the truth is I can't say goodbye


[Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]
So I made friends with all my demons
Let 'em sink their teeth in

Got usеd to the feeling of letting it go
So give mе something to believe in
Or throw me in the deep end

It all feels the same with your eyes closed
So you can throw me in the
Deep end (Deep)
Deep end (Deep end)
Deep end (Deep)
Deep end
[Verse 2: Eric Vanlerberghe, Both]
On the same old path again from where I'm at to where I've been
I'd drift away and you'd pull me in
But the waves are deep and I'm wearing thin
, yeah
I caught myself in a lie
Guess I'm just calling to say you were right
I carry the weight of the world in my head
And it keeps me up at night


[Pre-Chorus: Eric Vanlerberghe, Brian Burkheiser]
And everybody tells me it's alright (Alright)
Everybody tells me I'll be fine (Fine)
Everything is not o-fucking-kay
Out of all the times that I've tried
I find the air is thin and I'm against the wind
With each mountain left that I climb
But the truth is I can't say goodbye


[Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]
So I made friends with all my demons
Let 'em sink their teeth in
Got used to the feeling of letting it go
So give me something to believe in
Or throw me in the deep end
It all feels the same with your eyes closed
So you can throw me in the
Deep end (Deep)
Deep end (Deep end)
Deep end (Deep)
[Verse 3: Brian Burkheiser]
'Cause everything is changin'
Memories are fadin'
Tell me that I'm fucked up
I wanna hear you say it (Say it)
All my fears are
Slowly rearranging
Pushed them all aside but
I can feel them waitin'
'Cause everything is changin'
Memories are fadin'
Tell me that I'm fucked up
I wanna hear you say it
All my fears are
Slowly rearranging
Pushed them all aside but
I can feel 'em waiting

[Chorus: Brian Burkheiser]
So I made friends with all my demons
Let 'em sink their teeth in
Got used to the feeling of letting it go
So give me something to believe in
Or throw me in the deep end
It all feels the same with your eyes closed
So you can throw me in the
Deep end (Deep)
Deep end (Deep end)
Deep end (Deep)
Deep end
[Outro: Brian Burkheiser]
It all feels the same with your eyes closed

About

Genius Annotation

“Being one of the most introspective tracks on the record, it became a reflection on an attempt to stop battling certain things about yourself and instead learning to accept them as a part of who you are. There’s a peace to be found in that. Overall, this track allowed us to evolve the softer side of our band and we’re incredibly proud of it.”
