Underscore
April 17, 2015
Let me drown so I can breathe
I'll close my eyes so I can see
Feel the sea against my skin
(draw me in)
Let me fall so I can rise
I'll throw my hands up to the sky
If I believe I just might fly
(fly away from here)
Let me drown so I can breathe
I'll close my eyes so I can see
Feel the breeze against my skin
(suffocating)
Going under, sinking deep
Feel the sand beneath my feet
lungs collapsing, thoughts relapsing
breath escaping, new awakening...
"Welcome to Heaven, Please take a seat,"
"Next up is number 613."
