Deep down in the murky waters
I hold my breath,
Looking to untangle myself from the mess,
That holds me deep down in these murky waters,
I struggle with the things that hold me down
Just like I know I ought to
In these murky waters
And as I struggle and get myself free,
I find a desperate need to breathe,
In these murky waters
And feel my lungs about to burst
As I try to rise up, the pressure hurts,
In these murky waters
And I feel my self succumbing,
To the bliss of suffocation
And as I try to swim on up
I feel like giving up on this,
In these murky waters
But I strike out one last time,
As fear and survival fill my mind,
In these murky waters
And as I break the surface
And as the light showers down on me,
As I break out of these murky waters,
I gasp and breathe in air
I breathe in life,
That these murky waters tried to deny
My body and my soul of,
It thought it was in control of me
But these murky waters
Could not keep me down,
In these murky waters
I refuse to drown.
