Some lyrics I wrote for Nic. It's about this sound that makes you drown... I don't know, Nic came up with it, I just wrote about it
Anywho,
I wake up at night
With no fear, nor fright
I hear the sound
The sound from where I may drown
I get up and look around
And search for that sound
By now I'm captivated
Starting to get frustrated
I search and search all through the night
Why, oh why is it so hard to find?
I wanna look up, to hear the sound
I wanna sleep, I wanna drown
As I turn my head to the side
Something catches my eye
It leads me to the door
Oh, could this be what I'm longing for?
I search and search all through the night
Why, oh why is it so hard to find?
I wanna look up, to hear the sound
I wanna sleep, I wanna drown
The sound covers me, and flows into my ears
As it fills me with hope, and washes away my fears
It takes me in, it pulls me down
Now I can sleep, now I can drown.
Now I can sleep, now I can drown x2
Silent in the trees.

I'm not sure if that's a compliment...

It is. Sting (Lead singer of the Police.. in the Rock N" Roll Hall of fame) writes some pretty good stuff... and this song you wrote was pretty good.

Like I said, it was a hard idea to make sense of
I picture it as like, when you get an idea, the idea sort of wraps all around you, and takes you to your own little world, you know?
