_hold on_

With a headache in my brain,
this life only brings me pain,
I lack any actual gain
and I think I'm going insane.

I once was swimming near the shore, but now I'm there no more,
I'm drifting down to the bottom,
with the rocks.
Can anyone hear me?
Does anyone know?
Have any of them questioned, "gee, where did she go?"
Should I continue to hold on,
or just give up?
I can't swim well on my own,
so it seems I'm kinda stuck.

There's gotta be a hope,
a reason to hold on.
So giving up, I've decided I am not.
