I close my eyes,

I don't want to look up.

I'm drowning...

But not in water.

No, not water...

I'm drowning in the darkness of your soul.

As I plead for breath,

Only pain arrives.

The lump in my throat shows no sign of receding.

I beg of you to let me go!

Please!

I just want to breathe,

To simply live!

But that's more than you can stand,

Isn't it.

So farther I fall into the dark abyss.

Please help me up...

The tears burning my cheeks show no sign of stopping,

But all I want is for you to let me go.

To free me from the dark wretches,

That you so happily trapped me in.

As I try one more time to breathe,

I can only speak one last time.

The words broken and mangled,

But understandable all the same...

"I loved you..."
