this is 100% an underrated song of Daughtry. plus i dont doubt that when Chris was approached by the creators of Arkham City to make a song for it he said yes in 2 seconds because he's a fan of comic books and Batman
Listen I'm just gonna say it. This is perhaps the most underrated song of all time. Incredible vocals, excellent lyrics and a badass guitar solo. This track is phenomenal and it is tragic more people don't know about it.
I mean, based on my memory, in the past year this video has gotten about 200k views compared to its 700k in the previous 8, so I'm really hoping it means this song is starting to become more widely known.
AMEN BROTHER... This song speaks to me so much, never ceases to give me goosebumps... Batman doesn't want to drown in Gotham... this guy not only nailed the lyrics, but also made an phenomenal song. Incredibly underrated.
If I hadn’t seen the date released, I would have sworn this was a recent recoding. More in line with what they have been doing lately, here in 2024. Love it!
One of Daughtry’s best songs he’s ever done. It’s a shame this song wasn’t more mainstream. Kind of hard to be, when the song isn’t even on Spotify. I guess he doesn’t own the rights to it.
this song is brilliant, it goes perfectly with batman's dark and brooding nature, his constant effort to make his city a better place, for his every downfall but always coming back stronger and simply being batman, perfect human being on psychical, mental, spiritual level but cold, strict, dark, lonely and lost soul on a quest to restore purpose to his life and fighting against all odds...just as i said simply being batman
Batmans fear is drowning in Gotham the city that cursed him... he fears his mission will never end... he thought what he was doing would fix his problems... but it didnt.. it made them WORSE!.. "I DON'T WANNA DROWN INNNN YOUUUUU!!!!!!!" COME ON! masterpiece imo.
It's because Batman aka Bruce Wayne has given everything for the city of Gotham and is constantly being belittled for being him. Beaten and battered as Batman but he never gives up, instead he's always trying to fight back and show that there's always at least one person willing to fight against evil and injustice. I love Batman's mindset
It's certainly fitting for Arkham Knight, since the Joker's influence is taking over Batman's mind. In fact, you could say that Batman is drowning within the Joker!
He's better off without that. American Idol wasn't ready for his genre, Chris is doing just fine without American Idol. Glad he came far though, so the world saw him.
There's a place where you can light the fire and watch it burn Lay it down and lose it all It's taken me so far beyond the point of no return Gave all that I had When hope is gone (Hope is gone) Is this real? Or is it just another crazy dream? Someday soon will fade away Feels just like I'm under water and can barely breathe Dying in the bed that I have made I don't wanna drown in you I'm sinking, then I'm torn in two So when you see me come up for air Don't try to hold me down, just save me now Don't let me drown in you (Don't let me drown in you) City pulls me in closer than I've ever been There ain't no way I can escape Without a doubt you know that I would tread the deepest end Thousand years forever in a day But I don't wanna drown in you I'm sinking, then I'm torn in two So when you see me come up for air Don't try to hold me down, just save me now (Just save me now) Don't let me drown in you Did I bring this on myself? Can I get out alive? Yeah, I've given you the best of me Now you want the rest of me What's it gonna take to survive? Yeah There's a place where you can light the fire and watch it burn... I don't wanna drown in you (Drown in you) I'm sinking, then I'm starting to (I'm starting to) So when you see me, come up the river Don't try to hold me down, just save me now (Just save me now) Don't let me drown in you Don't let me drown in you (Drown in you) (Just save me now) Don't let me drown in you (Drown in you)
I love all of Daughtry's songs and this one is great! Chris' voice makes me feel so good. I wish this had been on an album because I'd play it as much as I play the rest of his songs. I am so excited because I'm going to see his concert on 2/22!!
This is one of the best songs I've ever heard that captures the anxieities of deep relationships. Many people want one with passion and understanding at the same time, knowing how hard they are to sustain and this song really understands those fears.
It's amazing how this song also reminds me of one of my other favorite superhero series, Teen Titans 2003. A lot of the relationships echo the themes of this song with how obsessive and paranoid the characters can get with each other in either facing their enemies or trying to keep their romances afloat in the middle of all that.
Why the hell is this song still not available on any streaming services?! I want to listen to this on Spotify, Amazon Music, etc! Glad it’s here on RU-vid at least, it’s still one of my favorite Daughtry songs!
Not sure why but I also like this song from Chris Daughtry as well too this song feels like it should definitely be a video game like NBA 2k or maybe NASCAR or a f1 game or something like that.😊
I have a friend that could pass to be his twin brother! I play drums I always joke an tell him were going to start a doughtry tribute band. Some one walk into the bar N seen him they'd freak an think it's actually him
lucykitty33 I agree, even though I admit I love the pop music he did. i just love Daughtry in general, sad they aren't as popular now as they should be.
Daughtry, please come back with this kind of rock. Not the ones on 4th and 5th album. My heart broken when you changed the taste of your music 180 degree.
Music is an expression of oneself. If he wishes to change it up, live with it. Listen or don't, I don't believe artists should just cater to the fans. You do you Chris, and Imma keep on rockin wit you.
Chris Has Alot Of Powerful Songs But The Vocals On This Song Just Maybe His Best Yet!!! This Song Should Have Definitely Been More Mainstream!!! All I Know Is,,, Once Again Chris Gives Such An Awesome Performance To A Great Song!!!
Really that's awesome I like Chris Daughtry he's one of the best rock singers besides Shinedown and what's your favorite song from Chris Daughtry besides this one.?😊
I love this song! I was introduced to it back in 2012 by my friend who is a big Batman fan, Since then I have gone on to become a pretty big fan of Batman and all I can say is, Thanks Daniel for introducing me to this beautiful song and to Batman, ALSO thanks Daughtry for this beautiful song :D
“Wise man once said,” I’m that wise man! This should be playing on the radio constantly not this other watered down poppy one trick garbage.!!!! Killer rock song daughtry!!!!🤙🤙👏👏🤘🏻🤘🏻
My God this song is awesome I am a major Daughtry fan this song reminds me of exactly what I felt being with my ex my God it's like I was drowning in her horrible feeling😔 and this song sums it up perfectly! freaking love this song! 😎
Not sure why this was never a smash radio hit. One of Daughtry’s best songs ever. And you can’t even find it on any streaming site, like Spotify. Very odd. There’s gotta be a story here. A song like this is too good to be buried on a video game soundtrack.
Awesome song by one of my fav bands and singers! ^_^ And a great game!! Btw, here’s a fun fact: Chris Daughtry Plays as Hugo Strange in the short Batman fan made film “Dying Is Easy”
Lyrics [Verse 1] There's a place where you can light the fire and watch it burn Lay it down and lose it all It's taken me so far beyond the point of no return Gave all that I had when hope is gone (Hope is gone) Is this real, or is it just another crazy dream That someday soon will fade away Feels just like I'm underwater and can barely breathe Dying in the bed that I have made [Chorus] I don't wanna drown in you I'm sinking, then I'm torn in two So when you see me come up for air Don't try to hold me down Just save me now Don't let me drown in you (Don't let me drown in you) [Verse 2] The city pulls me in closer than I've ever been There ain't no way I can escape Without a doubt, you know That I would tread the deepest end Thousand years forever in a day [Chorus] But I don't want to drown in you I'm sinking, then I'm torn in two So when you see me come up for air Don't try to hold me down Just save me now (Just save me now) Don't let me drown in you [Bridge] Did I bring this on myself, can I get out alive Yeah, I've given you the best of me Now you want the rest of me What's it gonna take to survive, yeah [Pre-Chorus] There's a place where you can light the fire and watch it burn [Chorus] I don't wanna drown in you (Drown in you) I'm sinking, then I'm torn in two (I'm torn in two) So when you see me come up for air Don't try to hold me down Just save me now (Just save me now) Don't let me drown in you [Outro] Don't let me drown in you Drown in you (Just save me now) Don't let me drown in you (Drown in you)
