Tossed on the sea of darkness, filled with the dread of life, <br />finding no one to talk to, sealing a promise of death. <br /> <br />Sending out signals to all who are drowning, holding on to <br />each other - we're all going under. <br /> <br />Tossed on the sea of darkness, eyes filled with sand, turning <br />over and over to an unheard of band, standing on walls of <br />silence, eating words of wisdom. <br /> <br />Thinking I heard someone dying, but it was only laughter <br />filled with despair. <br /> <br />Tossed on the sea of darkness, lost forevermore - no one seems <br />to care if I have gone before them. <br /> <br />No one hears any laughing, there's no one to hear a prayer, as <br />I lay dying in front a crowded chapel - no one dared to care. <br /> <br />Tossed on a sea of darkness, mirrors of images cast, no one <br />here to see the last of mankind crying, it was drowned out by <br />tears. <br /> <br />All the sorrow of earth was felt here inside my heart, I could <br />feel your pain, but do nothing to stop it - not even to save <br />myself. <br /> <br />Tossed on the sea of darkness, fallen under the gentle waves, <br />life has been tossed into darkness below a watery grave.<br /><br />RoseAnn V.
