The salty waves wash over my eyes
And the water all around me dies
Abandon the great ship of life and hope and happiness
Never cared for ending up right here
And a silent scream rings in my ear
The half-forgotten memory of agony and fear and death
Come look at me now
You're victorious, I'll bow
I reach out and touch the face of the sea
Decay of the past, the slow stream of time, decompose my reality
Forever I remain in-between
I slowly walk down the crowded hall
Desperate smiling faces wall to wall
Like crazy jesters that played just one too many prank
For many days I've been drowning here
My mind in the state of constant fear
Living on the edge of reason and trying to numb the pain
Come look at me now
You're victorious, I'll bow
I reach out and touch the face of the sea
Decay of the past, the slow stream of time, decompose my reality
