I am the water.
I lap eagerly at the shore
And crawl down into the darkest abyss.
I give life
I give home to life
I take life away
I lull and soothe
Then lash out
Throwing a violent tantrum
Tearing apart everything in my path

I am in the water.
Fighting desperately against the currents
Shoved down by the swell
To rise up again
My lungs beg for air
I'm at war with the sea
And I'm losing
Caught in the tides
And swallowed up in the end.
