Inside the garden walls

Drown

To drown, to breathe, to smell, to swim, however I end I know I'll never win

A long life won't take me down, no the deep blues keep me bound

I think of all the places I could sink

Of all the places I could leave and no one would blink

I've been asked why water, why the weight of waves calls me in

And all I can think to say is when I want to live I can swim

But when my limbs grow tired

and I desperately try to stay above the oceans surface

The option of just staying still always floats at the back of my mind

To drop, to fall, to cry, to grin, all I know is to swim is the only way to win

And yet all I wanna do is give in

Do I even care if I win?
