Desperately Drowning
Bubbles escape my screaming lips
Water swirls at my fingertips
Like poison, it invades my lungs
It’s so cruel and tasteless on my tongue
Thrashing and kicking, I resist
I’m recieving no help with this
Drowning, I’m dying, I cannot breathe
Does anyone care enough to help me?
I guess I’ll just struggle under the surfac
While above it seems all fine
This feeling of under the surface
Is forever mine
I’m screaming, fighting, resisting
This to take me alive
But I’m drowning under the surface
And no one seems to realize
My surroundings are changing
Gradually from blue to red
My eyes are burning and stinging
Thoughts are swirling in my head
Seaweed wraps around me
Like a suffocating hug
This heavy weight pulls down on me
Hauling downward with a tug
I guess I’ll just struggle under the surface
While above it seems all fine
This feeling of under the surface
Is forever mine
I’m screaming, fighting, resisting
This to take me alive
But I’m drowning under the surface
And no one seems to realize
That I can’t breathe on the inside
And all this water starts to make my words
So incomprehendible
They ask how I am
I tell them I’m dying
But the bubbles gurgle, “I’m fine.”
I guess I’ll just struggle under the surface
While above it seems all fine
This feeling of under the surface
Is forever mine
I’m screaming, fighting, resisting
This to take me alive
But I’m drowning under the surface
And no one seems to realize
I am struggling under the surface
While above it seems all fine
This feeling of under the surface
Is forever mine
I’m screaming, fighting, resisting
This to take me alive
But I’m drowning under the surface
And no one seems to realize
There’s murky water in my eyes
