Nova

It all felt so real
The flow of life that left
The world whispered your name
In colors so dull and expressionless
Was there anything?
Maybe I was trying to pretend
I wonder if you felt it all along
You saw the beginning to the end
You watch me drift away
Over and over again
I’m drowning in the rain, wither away
Bury the pain in the hopeless deep
Scorched beneath the skin
Leaving the surface to make amends
Buried in the pain again, but this time
It all felt so real
Find my way, see through the grey
In the hopeless deep
The quiet that used to put me to sleep
Seems so loud in this restless bleak
Watch me drift away painlessly
Is it selfish to say I don’t deserve it?
The constant rain withers me
The fine line between giving up and letting go
You watch me drift away
Over and over again
I’m drowning in the rain over and over
Wither away over and over again
I’m drowning in the pain
The quiet that used to put me to sleep
Seems so loud in this restless bleak
Watch me drift away painlessly
Is it selfish to say I don’t deserve it?
