It's been a tough day.
Give me the silent screaming of the night
Wrapped in the warped siren's song
Beckoning me to the dreamless dark
To drown in my Ocean Tears
The waves crash through the walls
The sand seeps through the floor
The air is thick with memory melodies the siren sings to me
I should get it over and done with.
To down in my Ocean Tears
Have I been here all along?
Did I ever leave the sea?
A certain song surfaces – a reprise that my siren does not sing
Don't drown in my Ocean –
Mother isn't proud and she never will be.
I put the bottle down.
Just one more day, if I can stand it.
