I'm in the middle of no where
surrounded by water
I'm empty, staying afloat
with every passing wave my heart grows heavy
I can see my consciousness drift from me
the waves carrying it to a lost island
my heart weighs me down until i am completely engulfed into the darkness of the sea
i see no light
I am pulled down, my arms reaching for air
but my heart grows heavier and I sink faster with my consciousness above me
gone
my lungs fill with water
my eyes fall shut
i hit bottom
there is no light

I'm in the middle of no where
surrounded by water
I'm empty, staying afloat
with every passing wave my heart grows heavy
I can see my consciousness drift from me
the waves carrying it to a lost island
my heart weighs me down until i am completely engulfed into the darkness of the sea
i see no light
I am pulled down, my arms reaching for air
but my heart grows heavier and I sink faster with my consciousness above me
gone
my lungs fill with water
my eyes fall shut
i hit bottom
there is no light
