Drown from Goodbye by Branch to Root
Drown was about someone moving forward in life and you being left behind. You realise that you were the thing that was holding them back and you learn to accept the change. You start to see your dependency as unhealthy and even though you are happy for the person making their way through life you wish they would come back for you.

Lyrics
You drown out the day
With forgotten first names
We both make our plans to get out of this place
You get sick of waiting
Be my doctor be patient
And if I let you go I won’t expect you to come back for me
Give me what I crave
Help me dig my own grave
If we don’t make amends bury me with my friends
Your words paint a picture so keep reading your scripture
And if I let you go I won’t expect you to come back for me
You drown out the day
You forgot my first name
Left me out of your plans to get out of this place
I hope you unravel with every inch that you travel
And if I let you go I won’t expect you to come back for me
Come back for me

Founded in 2015 as a personal project between friends, the band has developed an extensive and eclectic discography. Described in a Louder Than War review as being full of “fuzz, melody, and passion,” the record showcased their cohesive-but-oscillating approach to songwriting that has earned comparisons to bands as diverse as Basement, Death Cab For Cutie, and Manchester Orchestra.
