Drowning

Terrified
of everything, she…..
never learned to swim
Grab hold of any… thing that floats
Too tired, to make it to shore
Too tired, to stay up here
(waves too high) catch
One last breath
Before going down….before….going….
Can’t keep from ….going down, down, down……

Suppressed …..and
Depressed….helped her to repress
All the tortured souls…….. inside
She knows where they all hide
Lived all these years
Treading in the wake
Of every trauma….
That rings in her ears
Wash away …..all the tears
Wake up again to face tomorrow
Don’t wanna be here…… tomorrow…..


Helpless…..and
Hopeless….helped her to confess
All the sins…..deep inside
Thought she knew where they’d hide
Lived all these years
Reacting to fears…..shedding tears
All those tears……
Wash away……won’t you wash them away?
Wake up again to face tomorrow
Don’t wanna be here…..tomorrow



sucks, cuz life's been feeling this way lately.......ohhhhhhh, IIIIII, IIII"M STILL ALIVE......

  • Brave confession :)

    Whenever I'm "Drowning" I think of my sig . . . and suddenly the clouds are my carpet.
  • grab hold of anything that floats
    anything remotely see worthy
    as is your right
    and sooner or later learn
    to look for holes














    oh yeah jlf, been there done that...
    and then that little tune you referenced
    finds its way into the player
    and at least i know i'm not alone

    ....is something wrong he said? of course there is...
    you're still alive she said?
    oh...
    do i deserve to be? and if so? if so? who answers???...


    hard to believe
    finally the shades
    are raised...


    i like it, j... thanks for putting it up (:

  • want to say i love you
    said before between the explosion
    if i choose
    to be
    less than a man
    will it be alright

    hurts to open up my eyes to
    the reality
    of my offense
    miles away conscious appears in
    this thought
    i picture you in tears
    it sucks

    want to say i love you
    this place is a mess

    im thankful to feel that my love is so corrupt
    i wonder what the reason is sometimes
    your words are good
    i drift away
    i live in the movie
    and she saves me with one note

    im lickin away tryin to remain jockless
    i pray to be punk when i dont even
    understand reality is starvation

    drowning sucks in my life
    my thoughts fearful of the greatest of bridge collapse

    live to hang
    lets live to hang
    live to hand

    its the prize
