I’m drowning I wanted to let myself drown. The appearence gave me peace As if it can hold all my burdens. So I permit it’s eternity to swallow me But the water, It didn’t let me drown. It tried to lift me everytime I tried With it’s unbearable force I’m floating through I looked up as I float. There was a bright sunshine That cathced my attention by force Sunshine that looked like a truth, a virtue That I felt obligated to reach without intending. They say brightness is a reflection of virtue, And the water lifted me up to it as if it is true As if it’s a need, an obligation. That powerful spirit of water balanced me Balanced me through the brightness and the darkness of eternity The darkness that comes from beneath And it’s at least catchy as the brightness. It captured my ankle and pulled me Like an invitation to it’s charming obscurity. I wanted to be lost in it If I could just manage I would let myself into the darkness beneath Far from obligations or the needs, I’d let myself into the hands of my drives They say darkness reflects instincts and drives But still, the water balances me. As I hold my breath and be filled with air It lifts me to the surface where the light comes. As my breath goes away and I manage to let myself It also lets me down to the hands of the darkness. I’m drowning in the depths of the water I’m drowning between my moral and my drive.
