Drowning

I'm drowning once more

Not in silence, but in noise

Noises I couldn't ignore

Noises I've already heard before

Saving is not what I'm looking for,

But a warmth to ease the cold—

Of the solitude that I hold.

A warmth that can always hold.

I'm scared,

I don't know where to go

Looking for someone to care

But is that what I'm really looking for?

I'm me—I know that I'm strong,

But what strength is if you're alone.

All the strength I have, what is this for

If there's nothing I could fight for.
