Asphyxia

Smother me, choke my persistence
underneath the surface cold
and in my mind there's no resistance
No defence, there's no stronghold

I gaze into deceiving mirrors
they stare back hard, so vile and cold
Within their grasp, hangs my submission
They cling on tight, they won't let go
I can't take no more

Hold on to me, I'm led adrift in deceitful seas
my limbs turn numb as the waves subdue me
Can't breathe, I can't breathe
I'm at the mercy of the vile and deep blue sea
Can't breathe

Eventually I lost my grip
and through my hands this life slipped
Although it felt, like it was long gone
No future there, for this life undone
I can't carry on

Let go of me, I'm led adrift in deceitful seas
my limbs turned numb as the waves subdued me
Couldn't breathe, I could not breathe
Drowned in the arms of the vile and deep blue sea
