Trying To Stay Positive In Hell
Picking through an ocean of Sharks hiding behind harlequin painted masks
With Cheshire smiles and chromatic flashing eyes
Advertising their lairs and submerged dungeons
These trials and tribulations must be endured.
Shaking hands big enough to swallow me
The way everyone else can get swept up in the current
When I'm too afraid to dip my toe in
The sea is too thick and red to be water
The water is saltier than it should be
