I'm swimming all alone in a pool of darkness,
  And I feel like darkness is slowly pulling me   
  under,
I yell for help,but no avail,
    I begin to see the water at eye level,
And I kick and flail,
    Fighting to stay above the darkness,
But it won't let go of its hold upon me,
    And slowly I begin to give in,
To the feeling that lies below the waterline.
    The water starts to fill my lungs,
The lungs that once held so much life,
  Yet now they let the murky water to replace that.

I know that this path doesn't lead to happiness,
    But why doesn't someone grab my hand?
Pull me out of this darkeness's grasp?
    Because no one knows that,
I stood at the boundary—
   the boy dart of light and dark.
So I give in to the thing that holds me,
     All of the strength and all of my courage
That I once held in my heart
   Can't save me from the water,
So slowly I slip below the world of conscientiousness,
   Undetected by the occupants of the world
I don't want to fight any more,
    'Cause I've given into the darkness's grasp.
