Lyric

I put the glass down on the table

Before it shattered in my hand

The room was full of easy answers

None of them sounded like my own

A pressure climbed behind my ribs

Like water striking at a wall

I heard somebody say my name

But I was halfway down the hall

One second still, one second gone

The weight of staying pulls me down

I move or drown

I move or drown

If I stay, I disappear

Without a single sound

I don't know where I'm going

But I know I can't stay now

I move or drown

I move or drown

The stairwell hums like power lines

The exit sign is burning green

Outside the gutter overflows

The streetlights swim across the road

My phone keeps ringing in my coat

I let it vanish in the rain

Each step is dragging up the next

And something in me breaks its chain

One second still, one second gone

The weight of staying pulls me down

I move or drown

I move or drown

If I stay, I disappear

Without a single sound

I don't know where I'm going

But I know I can't stay now

I move or drown

I move or drown

I don't know if this saves me

I don't know what comes next

I only know that standing still

Was water to my neck

One beat, two beats, flood the gates

I hear the whole world change its weight

I move or drown

I move or drown

If I stay, I disappear

Without a single sound

I don't know where I'm going

But I know I can't stay now

I move or drown

I move or drown

One second still, one second gone

I'm moving now
