A spray of sea foam sticks salt to skin
Washing my hands clean of grease
Knowing full well it only delays the inevitable
As you disappear into the blue abyss
...
Leaking fluids and fuel, you sink
A trail of iridescent black seeping from your chest
It's cold down here, far too cold
Though even from the bottom you can see the surface
---
But I see only blues and blacks as I turn my vessel towards shore
Leaving behind only a shimmering stain
I can live my life again
Now without the weight of my own invention
...
But you wait, patiently, unable to move
Undying
I eventually forget you all but completely
But you cannot forget
We will meet again soon.

Sink or swim
Sink or swim
My arms are heavy
My heart's what's dragging me down
My legs stopped kicking
The cold seeps into my bones
It's calmer below the surface
But it's far too loud
The fight has left me
My lungs are empty
I sink
I sink

Deep below the surface
Your eyes fixed on mine
Your words float up to me
Where they burst inside my mind
Fear clouds my judgement
And tears roll down my cheeks
They melt into the ocean
Swept off by the sea
When I said goodbye it was supposed to be the last time
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
When I said goodbye it was supposed to be the last time
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
Rust covers my body
My arms can barely move
Neglect has made me wither
But I know you'll be here soon
I watch you slowly sinking
To the depths that are my home
Your gaze is unwavering
As you stare into your soul
When you said goodbye it was supposed to be the last time
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
When you said goodbye it was supposed to be the last time
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
When you said goodbye it was supposed to be the last time
(There's no turning back with your hands around my neck)
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
When you said goodbye it was supposed to be the last time
(There's no turning back with your hands around my neck)
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
