somewhere on shore

im like a sinking ship,
just hanging on as i loose control
and im going under
letting go of it all


i can feel the waves slowly take over
as the water fills through my boat
it floods every inch of me 
till im no longer afloat


i feel the water fill my lungs
till i cant breathe anymore
i feel the water take over
each and every inch of my soul


and im drowning in this mess ive made
my ships sunk to the bottom of the oceans floor
and i lost myself along the way
hoping ill one day wash up along the shore
