The Deep End


Aren't we all lonely

Aren't we all sick 

sick of eachother's talk and shit

we fight, we cry, and sit

all to just swallow and forget

Engrossed lies

regurgitating goodbyes

we are swimming in circles

every reaching hand we don't realize 

Put in my buds to block it all out 

but even isolation can't stop the doubt 

cant stop the current running down the drain 

where it comes to the point of drought

Take this moment to breathe a bit 

seize the moment to release and admit 

the voice and noise of the pessimist  

to encourage my heart to never quit
