So long under the water
I've forgotten the light of day
So long under the water
I've forgotten what to say
So deep beneath the waves
My skin has peeled away
So deep beneath the waves
On the bottom I shall lay
The stones are heavy
Around my neck that you placed
The stones are heavy
With the rope tightly laced
The sea is so dark
As I swim the narrow path
The sea is so dark
Not much longer I will last
My lungs are about to burst
I can bear this pain no more
My lungs are about to burst
As I sink to the ocean floor
I cannot break the surface
As I give into my fate and my death
I cannot break the surface
Easier to drown than to fight for breath.
