Drown - Live at the Royal Albert Hall

So, I wanna talk about why we're all here today
We're all here today because of one of the worst diseases
Man's ever faced, cancer
But instead of talking about all the devastating things it does
'Cause you all fuckin' know about that
I wanna talk about the one thing you can say
That's positive about it and that's...
That it brings us all together, it makes people stronger
It makes people fight
People like Stephen Sutton, who raised millions and millions for cancer
When he had a fuckin' timestamp on his fuckin' life
My childhood friend, Aidan, who's here today
Who's just overcome bone cancer
Can you give him a round of applause?
He kept his family together
He said, "If I die, cancer hasn't won, I've won
I won't let it break my soul
Won't let it break my spirit"
How many of us can say we could be like that? It's fuckin' crazy
This song is for anyone that's battling cancer
That's lost someone to cancer
That's helping someone through cancer
This song's about going through the darkness
And comin' out on the other side, 'cause we all can do that
Cancer is just a word, it's not a fuckin' sentence
This song is called Drown

Are you ready?
Here we go!

What doesn't kill you makes you wish you were dead
I got a hole in my soul growing deeper and deeper, and I can't take
One more moment of this silence, the loneliness is haunting me
And the weight of the world's getting harder to hold up

It comes in waves, I close my eyes
Hold my breath and let it bury me
I'm not okay and it's not alright
Won't you drag the lake and bring me home again?

Who will fix me now? Dive in when I'm down?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown
Who will make me fight? Drag me out alive?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown

Let me hear you

What doesn't destroy you leaves you broken instead
I got a hole in my soul growing deeper and deeper, and I can't take
One more moment of this silence, the loneliness is haunting me
And the weight of the world's getting harder to hold up

It comes in waves, I close my eyes
Hold my breath and let it bury me
I'm not okay and it's not alright
Won't you drag the lake and bring me home again?

Who will fix me now? Dive in when I'm down?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown
Who will make me fight? Drag me out alive?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown

'Cause you know that I can't do this on my own
'Cause you know that I can't do this on my own
'Cause you know that I can't do this on my own
'Cause you know that I can't do this on my own

Who will fix me now?
Who will fix me now?
Who will fix me now? Dive in when I'm down?
Save me from myself, don't let me drown
