Lyrics

I spent some time alone
drowning in my mind
I'm so afraid
I'm so confused
I'm pressured out of reach

It's possessing my mind
in anguish in the dead of night
it's shattering
it's maddening
it's waiting to consume me

The endless emptiness
haunts me day by day
overwhelming
imploding
there's nothing left of me

Sometimes I would fall beneath the sea in the sky
leaving me a void by the stars in the stream
Sometimes I would drown in the lakes by the clouds but
nothing will mean anything

Sometimes I would fall beneath the sea in the sky
leaving me a void by the stars in the stream
Sometimes I would drown in the lakes by the clouds but
nothing will mean anything

Lakes by the clouds
fading in the distance
It's my soul
no one can save me

It's melting my dreams
turning them to dust
there's no need for hope
there's no need for love
it's drowning all my life

The endless emptiness
haunts me day by day
overwhelming
imploding
there's nothing left of me

Sometimes I would fall beneath the sea in the sky
leaving me a void by the stars in the stream
Sometimes I would drown in the lakes by the clouds but
nothing will mean anything
