Water Boy


Water boy, water boy

Everyone needs you, but you don’t need a single soul for yourself

All of your mood swings and waves twirl under the surface

On top is like a thin sheet of ice

They walk on you and fall deep in

Drowining.

Deep into your dilemma, lies insecurity

They don’t see you for you but what you made of you
