There must be a way to stand in a room full of people, scream, and be heard. I'm standing in a room full of people, I'm screaming, I'm screaming and my throat is raw and my ears are popping and I'm drowning everything out but my screams, and nobody can hear me. They don't look at me. They look through me. There must be a way to swim in the depths of the people I love without drowning. I'm loving, I love them with every aching bone, to the very core of my soul, but I'm drowning. I'm pulled by the weight of everything, and it pulls me to the bottom where no one can hear my screams and no one can see me. I'm dead in the water. I'm invisible. I'm so in love with life and I'm so in love with these beautiful people I'm surrounded by, but I'm screaming into the abyss and it's not loud enough for the beautiful people to hear. They can't save me. I can't save me.
