Trying to override one another

I fight hard against them

But to no avail

I am lost forever in this sea

And I wonder

Will anybody miss me?

My life flashes before me

And I want to cry

Memories flood my mind

As I begin to die

My parents smile at me

My first love sneers

And my friends look on

As my eyes fill with tears

All that I'll miss

Why does it have to be like this?

All the hurt built inside me

Comes forth now in a whisper

For I haven't a voice to scream

My life was not as it seemed

Deep down inside me

I feel so much pain

Thunder, lightning, and endless rain

Pours down upon my face

And washes away the tears

My anger is replaced

With paralyzing fears

This is really it

Soon I'll be gone

Never again to see the earth

The evening dusk, the morning dawn

Loneliness fills me now

And I grow deathly still

As I begin to drown

In the emotions that I feel

My heartbeat slows

And my blood runs cold

The sea becomes bold

It lets me up to catch my breath

To make me wish for my inevitable death

What a cruel, cold world

So indifferent and mocking

So full of hate and so shocking

The water fills my lungs

And takes my breath away

And I find that when faced with the end

I have but one thing to say

I open my mouth to speak

And then I drift away…..
