Below The Surface

Below The Surface 
Drowning in self doubt 
Edge of darkness 
I’m out of breath 
Submerged and drenched 
I’ve lost my way 
My purpose is fading 
Porcelain translucent 
Find me in the dark 
I’m fragile as a feather 
I just wanted a second chance 
Did I say something wrong? 
I’m anchored to the bottom 
With unfiltered thoughts 
My heart is hollow 
Reach out for me 
I’m just trying to say I’m sorry 
It’s cold and alone in complete isolation 
All wait for you down here 
Forgive me from all the pain I caused 
There's only one way and that is up 
Forgiveness can go along way 
Like two souls flying freely
