Caught in the undertow, taking my last breath,
Watching the waves run red over my open chest,
The sun is overhead cooking the sea,
Taking every last ounce of life out of me,
Everyday is a blur, flashing blood as it goes by,
The only thing I have left is drowning by my side,
The only word left to say is goodbye,
As my hand leaves the surface, to sink is to die,

I am the catalyst, for everyone around me,
When I walk in the room, every mind fights insanity,
The only life I've ever known is in the abyss,
As I fall further away, all I can say is this,
I am the catalyst, for everyone that I love,
I'm the worst thing for you, I hail from above,
As the world wastes away more every day,
I can't help but think I'm the source of this decay.
