I float over the ocean
Slight sight
Very faint in motion

Ash trails a line in the sky
But dissipates
No one to be seen by

I cry out for help
Look over at me
Look at these people
You have to save these

Look at these people
Look at me
Save these
But I don't cause a ripple

Not a sound to be heard
Not a whisper,
Nor a word

Sky getting dimmer
I have to be brighter
Stronger
But I can't get any better
Ligter
I have to be a fighter

But I can't

I fade
I dim
I blend in
Once again

Light a spark in me
I feel so alive
Make me better
Until my next dive
Next time I might just die

I'm sorry in advance,
I love you
At least you know why
