I started off on a wrong note. Building ships I should've known would not float.
I couldn't see why these "great" things sank, staring right at the holes in the planks.
Hoist the torn scales to the sky. There's a flaw in my obsessive eye.
It finally dawned on me. Who I am is not who I need to be.
When will I be finished with what may be my life's greatest work?
I pray to God. I pray that I will be heard.
The Ocean hides everything. I block my ears but still I hear the sirens sing.
Apathy's run out, I'm at the brink. What will it take to make this vessel sink?
Too many things to be and all at once.
It's gone from days to years, and years to months.
I think I should ask myself what I've done.
I'm going crazy just because I met someone.
Sometimes I catch myself just feeding on misery,
A second hand high does nothing for me.
I'm drowning, In my own mind.
I'm drowning, In myself.
