I could only hold my breath for so long, until I had no other choice but to say goodbye.
Beneath the water...
I can't close these eyes...
Just one breath left...
To finally say...goodbye

No struggle, no fear...
Just a single thought...
Underneath the water...
I realize the feeling...I almost forgot..


It would be so easy to struggle
To scream with this dying breath...
To accept the reality
To scream my regrets

Inside my head are memories
Flashes of a life no longer sought...
With the feelings buried inside my heart
I find myself all but slowly falling apart...

She reaches into the water, bringing it to her face...
Her and I, inbetween a desolate space
I reach for her, yet I am bound
Inside a darkness where I cannot be found

She stares into the water, lost within her disarray..
At a loss for words, she quickly looks away..
In her hands she finds her diary, a place to keep her thoughts
She places it into the water, in hopes these memories become lost..

She stands, with open arms...
Yet I can barely see
For another figure is there...
This is her moment to be...

He embraces her with love
A gentle kiss upon her lips...
Holds her body next to his...
Having their moment...in lovers bliss...

Suddenly I realize, what those memories were worth..
A time of love, a time....of hurt
Inside the darkness, I can finally see
That this moment.... is no longer worthy of me...

Beneath the water...

Allowing it to seep within my lungs...

This is the sacrifice I must make...before im able to move on

Inside this darkness, I begin anew...

A new dream....a dream

I must live... without.... the memory of you...
