Slipping inside... I let the water wash over me Scalding and steaming I feel myself melt in the heat Sliding down into the water Crawling over my head The world around me drowns I do not hear the door creak open and shut I do not hear the distant cough It rings through the halls like a bell Tolling death Sink further in Into the dark warm waters So that my tears mix inside Spoiling the fresh water with the bitter salt of sadness Even under here I can hear the ringing This is how I disappear Death's warm embrace comes for me Deep in the water

This is How I Disappear
Slipping inside... I let the water wash over me Scalding and steaming I feel myself melt in the heat Sliding down into the water Crawling over my head The world around me drowns I do not hear the door creak open and shut I do not hear the distant cough It rings through the halls like a bell Tolling death Sink further in Into the dark warm waters So that my tears mix inside Spoiling the fresh water with the bitter salt of sadness Even under here I can hear the ringing This is how I disappear Death's warm embrace comes for me Deep in the water
