Forgotten - From Ashes to New

Six feet from the bottom,
I'm drowning in the water.
Will I reach the air that keeps me here?
Or will I be forgotten?

Will I sink or will I swim if I can't stand?
Drifting further, all alone in the ocean.
I can see the end, will I breathe again,
Or wash away like a footprint in the sand?
I'm still fighting but the current carries me away,
I try to surface but I'm caught beneath the waves.
I'm slipping further, I'm sinking under...

I close my eyes, frozen inside of my mind,
I know I swim and I live, I know I don't and I die.
I'm hoping that I survive 'cause at this moment in life,
I got the shiver within that's growing colder with time.

Six feet from the bottom,
I'm drowning in the water.
Will I reach the air that keeps me here?
Or will I be forgotten?

I feel the air leave my lungs as I sink below,
Falling faster as I'm dragged into the undertow.
I'm losing hope and I'm growing cold,
Holding on when I feel like letting go.
I keep pretending that someday I'm gonna make it out,
Thinking heavy, that's what always seems to pull me down.
I'm slipping further, I'm sinking under...

I see the sky, I'm freezing barely alive,
I feel the cold in my bones, alone preparing goodbyes.
I know the air in the night, I know it's stereotypes,
I see it flowing like an ocean with my very own eyes.

Six feet from the bottom,
I'm drowning in the water.
Will I reach the air that keeps me here?
Or will I be forgotten?

Every inch is a battle,
Every breathe is a war.
Every minute's a struggle,
I can't fight this anymore.

Six feet from the bottom,
I'm drowning in the water.
Will I reach the air that keeps me here?
Or will I be forgotten?

Be forgotten...
Will I be forgotten?
Will I reach the air that keeps me here?
Or will I be forgotten?
