"Watch Me Sink" by Have Heart

Released: 2006
Album: The Things We Carry
Label: Bridge Nine
Genre: Hardcore
Lyrics: @ lyrics.time

What can I say about this song? I have no words. It is my (2nd)favorite song by Have Heart.
I love everything about it; the rhythm, the tempo, the breaks, the yelling, the WORDS. How can you not love a song that's smart enough to incorporate the word "licentiousness"? It starts off powerful and stays that way. An excerpt:
"(A breaking!) in spirit, (A breaking!) in promise, (A breaking!) in me.
How can I find the peace inside me of a world I can see?
(Taking and taking!) all for ourselves,
(Taking and taking!)
And it's dragging me down, (Deeper and deeper!)
Watch me sink (Like a stone!)
Like a stone, like a stone.
Like a stone, like a stone.
Into a sea of selfishness, (Selfishness!)
Selfishness, (Selfishness!)
Where me is more and you is less."

UGH, love it! You tell them, Pat Flynn. People are sucky. So as not to go down a meaningful reflection on society road(who cares about that?), I'll just say that I work out a lot to this song. Maybe not your average jogging soundtrack but it does the job for me. It's an angry song and that's what I need to push myself. Thank you "Watch Me Sink", motivation achieved.
