In deep waters
Nowhere to stand
Nowhere to stand
No ground beneath
Life is unplanned
How could I have known
This would be my path
In the dark of the deep
Where I’d suffer my wrath
Nothing to hold on to
No life guard in sight
Filled with terror and fear
Lost sight of the light
As it’s been birth to death
Just me, me alone
Surrounded by water
The depth of my unknown
Slew of thoughts
Rush through my mind
As I drift helplessly
Wondering if I’m worthy to find
So here, here I am
Standing in the deep
Surrounded in the deep
Covered by the deep
Gradually accepting
My fight begins to faint
Hope begins to fade
My demise and I inevitably acquaints
But at just the right time
One breath shy of my fate
I feel a hand reach for me
And a gentle voice whispers, Wait!
