Sinking

Remove from me this darkness that consumes all light,
Replace my shadow with fresh made white.
Analyze my every flaw and clip my dirty wings,
Extend your hand, remove my suffering.

Feel my cold dying breath against your skin,
Pull me under, let me sink back in.
Replace my sorrow with a glimpse of light,
Take my world, make my night...
