Not Letting Go
I know someone has hurt you.
Somebody’s done the same to me too.
This is bad enough to deal with on its own,
But the fact that our parents left us alone,
That’s nearly unforgiveable.
They’re supposed to make this existence livable.
It’s like I’m in the ocean and I can’t swim.
I can feel myself sinking, my surroundings getting dim.
I’m trying to kick to the surface, but the current’s too strong,
I can tell I don’t have long.
Its so peaceful, so simple, so… I don’t know.
Contemplating just letting go.
My limbs are screaming out in pain.
I’m about to let the sea have its way , When I realize I have to remain.
Yeah this is easier, but to give up because of some stupid waves?
Hell no… there’s enough people crying over loved ones graves.
I’m gonna fight whether it be on sea or land.
I plan on feeling that sand.
When I finish, even if I don’t win, its going to be grand.
And no matter how sad I get, it’ll never be by my own hand.
