How not to drown


I'm writing a book on how to stay conscious when you drown
And if the words float up to the surface, I'll keep them down
This is the first time I know I don't want the crown
You can take it now
You promised the world and brought me it hanging from a string
Stuck it in my mouth, into my throat, told me to sing
That was the first time I knew you can't kill the king
And those who kiss the ring

Tell me how
It's better when the sun goes down
We will never escape this town
I wasn't scared when he caught me, look what it taught me
Tell me how
It's better if I make no sound
I will never escape these doubts
I wasn't dead when they found me, watch as they pull me down

I'm writing a chapter on what to do after they dig you up
On what to do after you grew to hate what you used to love
That was the first time I knew they were out for blood
And they would have your guts

Tell me how
It's better when the sun goes down
We will never escape this town
I wasn't scared when he caught me, look what it taught me
Tell me how
It's better if I make no sound
I will never escape these doubts
I wasn't dead when they found me, watch as they pull me down

Watch as they pull me down
Watch as they pull me down
Pulling me down
Dead when they found me, watch as they pull me down
Watch as they pull me down
Watch as they pull me down
Pulling me down
Dead when they found me, watch as they pull me down

I'm writing a book on how to stay conscious when you drown
And if the words float up to the surface, I'll keep them down
This is the first time I know I don't want the crown
You can take it now
You can take it now
Take it now

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Chvrches is a Scottish synth-pop band formed in Glasgow in 2011. The trio consists of Lauren Mayberry (vocals), Iain Cook (keyboards, guitar) and Martin Doherty (bass, keyboards). Their sound, characterized by catchy melodies, introspective lyrics and an innovative use of synthesizers, quickly captured the attention of both critics and audiences. Their debut album, "The Bones of What You Believe", released in 2013, became an international success, reaching the top ten in several countries. Among the band's most well-known songs are "The Mother We Share", "Recover" and "Gun", which have helped solidify their status as a leading indie pop band. Chvrches has collaborated with artists such as The National and Halsey, and has performed at world-renowned music festivals like Coachella and Glastonbury. In 2018 they released their third studio album, "Love Is Dead", which explored darker and more introspective themes than their previous works.
