steady yourself and hold on
drowning silently in waters
how farther can i go now?
the cuts of my faces, traces of patterns
all glowing when i look in the mirror
reflection grins back at my horrid-looking face,
the monsters clawing in my bed,
they say I'll never reach the surface,
stay on the waters, why even bother?
fingertips slipping away,
i called your name but you didn't look anyway
waves are crashing into me
can't breathe, i wish this was all a dream
how many times do i have to crawl
until i reached at the end of it all?
the wounds and scars, they showed you how far
carved on my skin, kick your legs and say goodbye
sleep now tight, wish a goodnight
into the waters where all hearts die
