as i watched you drown i remember the sound
of your muffled cries, but you had to taste the lies
you had spun thousands of webs,
i could no longer hold creditability
for the words that flew around my head
you had hit me with an uppercut to the jaw
for the flaws you had made a point to highlight
didn't exist to anyone else other than yourself
so put your insecurities to rest
and inhale this water into your lungs
let them over flow & burst
yes darling, death does hurt
but when were all living to die
its understandable why you'd want to give up trying
let my lullaby swoon satan,
i would even dance with him, for you
as i watched you drown i remember the sound
of your mom pounding on the door
such a shame you refused to explore life longer
pray god wont be upset with me,
for every second your head was held underneath the water,
by my hand
i felt stronger
