Songs about drowning

Does anybody know any songs about actual drowning, not drowning as a metaphor for love, breakup, or mental health issues? I have trouble finding any.

The whole of Side B ("The Seventh Wave") of Kate Bush's Hounds of Love is about falling overboard and drowning. But I suspect that it might be a bit abstract for you?

Estonia by Marillion (look it up if needed)

Also

Drown with Me - Porcupine Tree - although that may fall into the "love" category idk - always hard to tell with Mr Wilson who is never knowingly cheerful

May I ask the original poster why they want a song about drowning ? Kind of worried now?

So he can hum it to his children as he drowns his wife in the bathtub, of course. I mean, what else would it be for?

On my driving test in 1975 I was asked two questions and got them both wrong, I still passed

1) What do you have to look out for in the countryside?
I went through every farm animal and transportation I could think of without mentioning tractors

2) What is the registration of the lorry over there?
I tried my hardest, I know I got some of it right. When he told me what it was I said "I thought you were on about the lorry halfway up the street"

In that case I suggest Alt J - Breezeblocks
