I'll never understand
or grasp ahold to reason
why'd you take my hand
and force me to leave him

Once we made our route
you promised not to tell
though everything is out
I drown in overwhelm

Pushed down underneath
my lungs are being filled
I didn't mean to breathe
but I couldn't remain still

You are the hands holding down
wishing that I'd die so soon
if I weighed less in pound
I'd be gone after a single tune

I'm sorry that I'm fighting
it's a force of bad habit
if I could control my act
I'd choose not to fight it

I'd let you drown me now
forever taking my soul
make you take a bow
for you accomplished my only goal
