Think of it as water closing over something until it is completely under. The key picture is not just 'wet' but 'covered over, with no gap left' — the surface closes above you and there is nowhere for air, sound, or you to get out. Every other use of drown keeps that same shape: something floods in, covers something else entirely, and what was underneath can no longer be heard, tasted, or coped with.
