—I jump in— I don’t think I am going to make it, I keep silence tucked under my skin. Clawing, reaching for the light, As I sink, it is clear and I know I won’t win. (Chorus) Ohhh, My eyelids slowly close as I begin to shudder. It is my life, it is my life that is flashing by, I am not here, I am not there. Sinking deeper and deeper, I disappear. (Verse1) Life so precious but I couldn’t hold on. I couldn’t be what you wanted, I tried, but no longer holding on. I surrender, body saturated with water, All I feel is numb, now I begin to succumb. (Pre-chorus) Ohhh, Tears float away mixed with the current. Now I slowly disappear, I drift into the fray. Ohhh, ohh, ohhh, oh no more time I have to go. The sound of the life I had now withers away. (Withers away) ohhhh (Chorus) I am struggling, sinking, being pulled under, My eyelids slowly close as I begin to shudder. It is my life, it is my life that is flashing by, I am not here, I am not there. Sinking deeper and deeper—I reach. Grabbing, struggling gasping for air. Ohhh-oh (Verse) I see my body on the edge as CPR begins. Lifeless and frozen no longer pain within. The lights flash, I hear my mother cry. She falls to the ground, my father is nowhere around. (Chorus) My eyelids slowly close as I begin to shudder. Desperately trying to pull me from the enclosed, A watery grave where I never thought I would impose. (Bridge) Gasping, jerking, my body surrenders, I didn’t think this would be my forlorn. (Outro) I can feel hands reaching in the frigid water. Silence falls as the sirens cry. I never meant to hurt you, as I sigh. I love you… always and forever…
