Into this sea of darkness I wade
forever all alone
For these waves of midnight black
are all the light i've ever known
I sink beneath the surface
Inky water over my head
I long to leave this wretched life
And join the legions of the dead
But deaths embrace i do not find
It seems that it is not my time
I break the surface once again
Longing for that blissful end
I sit limp as the waves crash
Looking back on bitter past
Failures laid out plain before me
Laid out for the whole world to see
But in them i find no meaning
Smothered by this eternal dark
Their purpose my mind not gleaning
Seeing only a future bleak and stark
I sit and wait for my time to come
Misery fills my waking thoughts
I lay here on these shadow waves
Like a fish waiting to be caught
In the end we all must wait
Upon these waves for our fate
And then pass into the abyss
Lost souls no one will miss
