The Sea

I've been hit By a tidal wave And I don't mind if I drown tonight I've been fighting The ocean long enough I keep sinking just when I reached the Light My past is the ocean And reality is the salt That stings my Eyes How can i swim WIth a weakened heart And avoid the obstacles of pain When I'm bruised and blind? I've been pushed off The boat of equality And I've lost hope so many times I just need someone to help me Build a bridge of love So I can Climb Out of the depths of my sorrow That slowly takes my life I'm trying to keep my faith But I've lost sight of the Shoreline And I'm losing count of all my prayers I don't know how long I'll last, Im running out of Time I keep being pulled under Because my past will always Strike It never stops haunting me And in the sea I cannot Hide I'd rather lose to all these waves Because there's no more Strength inside me Every time I almost make it The waves of course, remind me That I'm one breathe away From dying
