Currents

I can't see beyond the veil
 of death masking her face
 Tonight we come together as one
 The currents pulling me down
 My will and my flesh destined to die
 The acrid taste of failure
 festering in me no more
 Now I can reach beyond into oblivion
 The nothing that i was
 the nothing I long to be
 A bittersweet return from this hell
 Let me be forgotten
 I'm crossing the bridge
 Finally, I can be free
 Into the abyss, I'm falling down
 I want to be gone, just let me drown
 The dark brackish water burning my lungs
 Pressure builds behind my eyes
 I'm losing my resolve - can't handle the pain
 The gates are closed - bring me back
 Fear has its hooks in me now
 I've made a mistake - I want to come back
 I'm suffocating in regret
 The currents dragging me down
 to my new cavernous home
 To sleep forever
 Wake me up, it's no longer a dream
