DRAIN - Austin Live

A new song from Austin Live coming May 01, 2025

Drain is an emotional and lyrical folk-rock song about the difficult process of letting go. The artist is vulnerable and open about the frustration and hurt that comes from watching a relationship disappear. The chorus reflects the realization that "there is nothing I can do or say to change your mind, change your ways". A drain will take and may never give back, so a giver needs to know when to create healthy boundaries, take care of themselves, and know when to step back from things that cannot be changed. I hope you find value in this new heartfelt song.

Drain – Austin Live

Lately I’ve been so frustrated

For too long I’ve been mad at you

We have the freedom to make our own decisions

You’re gonna live the life that you choose

Nothing I can do or say

To change your mind change your ways

I wave my flag and just surrender

I have to learn to let it all go

And let you go

For years I tried to be your beacon

Now I’ve gotta care for my own

It makes me sad to see what you’re missing

You will never know what you don’t know

Nothing I can do or say

To change your mind change your ways

I watched you disappear all together

Its such a shame when there’s no one to blame

Time it has taken the fire from your eyes

And all this time that your wasting

It’s just passing you by

Nothing I can do or say

Change your mind change your ways

I watched you disappear all together

Its such a shame when there’s no one to blame

It goes down the drain oh oh

It goes down the drain oh oh

You will never know what you don’t know
