can't stand for all the knives in my back
weighing me down weighing me down
weighing down on me
my fruit's bitter hanging on the vine
like wasted promises from wasted time
feel the water rising on my neck
about to break, to crest...
the rest is history
i feel like drowning
the tide's dragging me down
weighing me down...weighing down on me
i'm smothered in hope
somebody save me
somebody save me
i hope somebody saves me
can you hear me screaming in hope?
in a state of being smothered in hope (save me)
in a state of breathing smothered in hope (save me)
in a state of mind breaking smothered in hope (save me)
it's held over my head like a pillow (save me)
drained of strength practically I'm dead
weighing me down weighing me down
weighing down on me
the water wipes my will dry
it's like a funeral of my mind
screaming means hope...
breathing means will...
i think i need strength
i want to give up my hope
it's weighing me down
i'm smothered in hope
somebody save me
somebody save me
i hope somebody saves me
can you hear me screaming in hope?
in a state of being smothered in hope
(save me)
in a state of breathing smothered in hope (save me)
in a state of mind breaking smothered in hope
(save me)
it's held over my head like a pillow
(save me)
