There's a science to sin,
It's the water we swim in
You can bump a strangers shoulder on purpose,glued to a fancy new purchase , and you let loose your lips to a foreign tongue
There's blood in the wAter
You, yourself are weak, and prime for slaughter
Praying for shallow water,
But there's a great white, and he's looking to pick a fight,
A gnash to your leg, as lucky as blindly finding a hole with a peg
But you know the risk
Tsk tsk tsk, where was your head?
We drink wine, and we break bread
You can scream and shout if you want to, but you can't out swim your fate, if that's what was decided for you, the result of someone greaters debate,
Pondering and pondering, you notice your mind wandering and wondering,
And soon your grip, keeps slipping and slipping, upon the sunlight to which your eyes focus,
Blacker and blacker it gets, and redder and redder the water gets, as your pulled into its dark depths
