Black as night
Like my souls not right
My chest feels so tight
And I can't find the light
To cling to when I'm lonely
I'm calling out, won't someone hold me?
I'm reaching out, can't somebody see?
That I'm drowning and can't breathe
I can't see it but I know I'm surrounded
I can hear the waves lapping against my shore
I can smell the salt of the ocean
And taste it on my tongue, but I want more
It's poison
It's suffocating
It's deadly
It's sweet
It's a killer
Taking away my breath
That's okay
I'm okay
You don't believe me do you?
You know a lie once it leaves my lips
I speak the words of truth
Until it comes to my feelings
I deny and dismiss
Say I'm doing just fine
Throw caution to the wind
And I fly off a cliff just in time
To avoid your stares
And questions
And queries
I'm in no mood to talk
Just listen to my heart beat
Beat...beat...beat........
Gone
