• The eternal ocean is all I can see
    The sharp scent of salt surrounds me
    Moonlight illuminates my drifting form
    Lost amongst the wreckage of the storm

    I call out to the souls of the dead
    With a voice of desolation instead
    Of the hopeful cry I earlier made
    Knowing now that I won't be saved

    Staring at the empty stars I let go
    My efforts erased by the ocean's flow
    Stealing both my faith and fears
    Calm in the midst of the ocean's tears

    Limp limbs and mind relax forever
    Abandoning the vain endeavor
    To save my life a thought forsaken
    When hope is gone the soul is taken

    I take a long final breath as I sink
    The sight of stars gone before I can think
    Just how sad it is that I am dead
    The water swallowing every tear shed

    The quiet melody of pulsing sea
    Quiets the pulse of the heart in me
    Slowing as silence steals my thought
    And grants the peace only death ever wrought

    I'm falling now into Oblivion's arms
    Apathy reviving her majesty's charms
    She welcomes me with a poisonous grin
    Beckoning me to "please come in"

    Sapphire blindness gives way to dreams
    And floating in the pain between
    My gentle murderer's lethal intention
    And my soul's grand reinvention

    Something living, something dead
    Something thought, nothing said
    The quiet shapes form all around me
    Souls forged from my fading memory

    Lights of emerald with crimson eyes
    Hatred surviving just as love dies
    But loathing robbed of that victory
    By the knowledge that it means nothing to me

    Nothing to me, just like the world
    Drifting away past the ocean unfurled
    Before my eyes knowing only the sea
    And the eyes of the lost staring at me

    I seem to have forgotten all the names
    But the souls gaze endearingly all the same
    I can't recall how to hope or fear
    I only remember I'm drowning down here
