Suffocate Me

I'm screaming

In an open ocean with the air I had left rushing out of my mouth

And the bubbles are in my eyes now

My limbs are flailing like the hope I had tried so hard to find

And I'm sinking like the people I tried to grasp on to

But I look down and there are bricks tied to my feet

And I'm sinking

The water around me is as dark as my mind

And I'm trying to find some sort of light

My flesh is being peeled off by fish biting me

And I'm bleeding out and I'm dying

My vision is fading and I'm struggling to breathe

There's no more bubbles

It's just the water and me
