With this flower I shall take your hand
With these words I shall make you cry
With this promise I shall give you hope
With this kiss I shall take you home

But the flower is dead and my hand is stained red
The words you say make me cringe
That promise you spoke made me choke
The hope is gone
The kiss u gave only said good-bye

Not everything is as it seems
One moment that you dream
You could wake up with a scream
That one day you’re happy
Could turn into despair

Trust me when I say
Look out into the bay
And see the way to go home
Walk into the water into the sunset
Sit down on the rocks with the fish
Sink down into the bay

As your vision starts to blur
As the water combs through your hair
Let the waves take you away
As you start to fade you’ll smile at the thought
That you’re finally going home
Then you close your eyes
And take your last breath
I have always thought about where I would truly belong and what would happen if I was to ever leave this world.
