My pen and paper
As the heaven crumples
It allows the sweetest saddness
to flood back into my life
and take me away
Drifting alone in the waters
The only reason I keep my head above water
Is my pen and paper
that show me the way
When I'm nothing but hollow
I forgotten how to survive for tomorrow
As the sea of sorrow sweeps me away
My pen and paper shows me the way
Stuck in the sea of sorrow I constantly push past the waves
that try to take me away
For days and days
I push harder and harder
I suddenly find myself being sucked under
Considering defeat
The sweetest temptation
My pen and paper remind me to keep fighting
to push back to the surface
and fight back the tidal waves
Because one day I will reach the shore
and I won't have to worry about drowning
anymore.
