Drown
I’m walking on this lonely road
My soul is gone, I’m lost
I see the other side of things
Because that line I’ve crossed
If you say I’ve broke your heart
I’ve broke mine ten times more
There is no lifeguard in the night
I float away from shore
The water is like an earthquake
My world is growing dim
It took me this long to look far back
And now I don’t know how to swim
I can’t deal with life’s rapids
And the water is so cold
I’ve made a huge mistake I see
For trying to be bold
I’m not connected to the world
And you’re my missing link
I have nothing to grab on to
So I begin to sink
Summer is supposed to time out
But god, I’m not okay
I thought that I could survive my life
Until you swam away
I feel my self leaving now
I can actually stand by my grave
I have so many problems
I just need one final wave
The water is so foggy
I’m alone in my own lake
I can’t keep paddling any longer
Life isn’t giving me a break
The sky is sprinkled with fiery red
As my sun goes down
You smothered me in hopelessness
And now my soul has drowned
