Were you afraid 
when you ran out of breath?
When the water touched your lips?
I heard a voice
Calling like a ghost
But then I
I lost it again


Where does all 
the living go

Running from 
the undertow
That never ends

Drags you down
Into yourself
Without a sound

We live and breathe
The centuries
As I was then
So I will be

Drowning under 
my beliefs
Where were you 
to comfort me?

Hurry in like a child 
getting dressed to leave
Trying not to forget anything
You took the world with you into the darkness

But didn't bring it back
Where have you gone?

What are you hiding from?
