Suspended on the ceiling of this abyss
Staring into the void that echoes everything I miss
A murky darkness welcomes me into the cold
You say I mean everything
But I'll never compare to your life of gold
Face down and drifting as I sink
I'm so sick of trying to breathe
I'm ready to drown
Pull my shell out of this hell
Place me into the ground
It feels like my entire life was miscarried
Nothing but rain when I'm burried
That's how I would have wanted it...
Just me and my cemetary
When I go, I want rain to drown the land
Don't even try to tell me that you understand
Things are what they are, and they can't be painted
In the end, this evil has everything tainted
So don't make me out to be something that I'm not
Saying I could have been, should have been, would have been
But I wasn't, and all of that shit is lost
No more fucking lies, just truth, with my last breath
Another pointless life, another senseless death
I might as well have never been born
Watching your love turn to scorn
That's why I'm sick of trying to breathe underwater
From day one I've just been another faceless drone
For the slaughter
It's how I begin, it's how I end
I'm just cannon fodder in this war
Drifting and sinking, cold ever more
My soul feels like trash, I can't see the shore
Each feeling is like a distant memory
If I let go, all I ask is that you remember me
The beating of my heart has become such a desolate sound
So sick of trying to breathe, as I sink and drown
-George, 2000
