It feels like I'm drowning in an endless sea of sadness

The pain sears right through my lungs 

As the air leaves my body

I feel the darkness come for me

 

 

Slowly it ensnares me in a cold embrace

My chest heaves softly; ceases to exsist

The quiet rise and fall can barely be seen

A wordless cry for something to give

 

 

You've got your hands wrapped around my neck. 

Hold on tight--tightly and squeeze the life out of me.

 

 

I silently wish you'd make it quick

The pain is too much to bear

If only you'd crush me that much tighter

Instead of leaving me in a black limbo

 

 

All I wanted was for you to love

But for some reason it was all too much

I shared all of my secrets

To be turned away, replaced with false pretenses

 

 

The promises you made

All wash away

With the tidal waves of lies

A tsunami of heartache and black seas of hate

 

 

You've got your hands wrapped around my body.

Hold on tight; shake the life right out of me.

 

 

Sweet surrender whispers to me

I give in just when you tighten your grasp

Your hold around my heart

The final pressure that take my breath away

 

 

You've got your hands wrapped around my heart.

Hold on tight; squeeze the life out of me.

 

 

We were doomed from the start

Destined to be apart

We could try with all our might

But could never get it right

 

 

Onyx seas take me under

It all disappears in a quiet sunder

A moment of clarity before death takes his hold

Your eyes tell me everything I've told

 

 

I'm at death's door

Cast away by you

My angel, my reaper

Now it all ends

 

 

You've got your hands wrapped around my neck.

Hold on tight; squeeze the life out of me.
