Let me breathe, let me be in peace
My eyes are filled with tears
The ache in my chest unbearable
I want to get away from the world
The horror of true reality

The feeling of being safe
How it carasses you
Wraps you around gently
Whisper sweet melodies

I struggle under the dark water
How many times I try to resurface
Hoping that someone would scoop me up
Someone that loves me

Life flash before your eyes
Before it feeds you lies
Truth brings light
As you hold what's true and what not

The water fills my lung
I can't be saved
My legs give out
My arms relaxes

Breath of Life
As I let the water take over me
Let the world know how I'm gone
Let me finally be in peace.
