Drowning
Lyrics
Pulled down to the depths,
I feel that I am going under.
Swept away, I struggle now,
Gasping for my last breath.
Choking me, I can not breathe.
Liquid vision, all I see.
Drifting - no sign of life.
Floating dead,
The tied carries me.
Fluid fills my lungs, as my eyes open wide.
I can't reach the surface - no sense of true direction.
My body turns, violently.
Cramping limbs, too weak to swim.
Drifting - no sign of life.
Floating dead,
The tide carries me.
Drowning, too weak to swim.
Floating dead, the tide carries me away.
Submerged in this grave.
My body set a drift.
Skin is white and cold.
Sinking to the depths
In this liquid terror,
Dead and motionless.
Drifting - no sign of life.
Floating dead, the tide carries me.
Drowning, too weak to swim.
Floating dead, the tide carries me.
Crushed by rocks and current,
I float up to the surface.
My body washed ashore, swollen from exposure.
Black and blue, lifeless dead.
Suffocation - in liquid.
Drifting - no sign of life.
Floating dead, the tide carries me.
Drowning, too weak to swim.
Floating dead the tide carries me, away.
