We all want the same things
Yet we hold them to far from reach
Whenever we try to grasp it
We get pulled farther beneath
No one wants pain
No one wants a burden
But we all try for the same things
While hurting each other
Who started this mess
Who made it all seem cool
It doesn't matter now
But were not just tools
We hit a wall
We only got each other
But we can't reach at all
We just have to swim a little farther
As we slowly sink
The water slowly rises
Some know how to swim
The others can only drown
How can we reach out to each other
If we keep swimming out farther
Away from one another
Not all of us can swim
But you can keep your head down
You're just trying to survive
While we all drown
I keep my eyes open
No matter how much they burn
Struggling to live
No matter where we turn
Some of us live
By preying off the weak
How much sense does it make
If they're gone in a week
I'm living by a thread
No matter how much I lose
I just keep swimming right next to you
You tell me to hang on no matter what we do
But I'm going to have to let you loose
So you don't drown too
I hear you scream, but
There's nothing you can do
I made my choice
Just to save you
My airs getting thinner
I don't know what to do
I have to survive, but
I'm no longer next to you
Goodbye for now
You'll get a little stronger
Because you don't have me
You'll live a little longer
