One of my favorite writings... (old)

One Way Trip

Holding my breath for as long as I can
Feeling free of control
No more pressure against my mind
Only my body, the more I go down
The reflection off the sun
Brightens the spirits of the clear blue

CHORUS: Rising up doesn't stop me from reaching you
Down below where the ships sleep
I sink closer and closer
When I see your hand fading
I know that I'm finally saying goodbye
In the one way, I was afraid to do.

Looking back at our nightmare…

Crashed into another's eyes
Spinning us out of control
Tipping over, capsizing over the boundary
As we sense the gravity pulling us down
Hitting the liquid below
Knowing what's going to happen next

The feeling of no escape pulls free
With your reflex of pulling yourself out
Of a closed in death trap.
You wait for me
But I'm attached to the strap
That's pushing me away from freedom
This is when…

CHORUS

A fear of dark water
And enclosing myself
Trapped from your air,
Only mine; re-inhaling each of my breaths
As I panic in such speed I let you go
Leaving me to rest with the souls
Of once suffered lungs filled with water
Seeing you cry under here
Makes me taste them with a cold heart

I let you go for a reason
I knew it was my turn to set someone free
I let you go for a reason
Now go, leave me
Leave me here to rest
And please, do remember what I did for you
