Into the Ocean

I want to get lost
I want to get found
I want to swim free
Without being drowned

The ocean is vast
and I dive without sight
head first in the water
on a cold, cold night

My lungs fill with water
my sight starts to blur
I start to ponder
the things that once were

The life I once had
before the plunge
the thoughts in my head
I cannot expunge

But now comes the time
when my mind can go blank
my eyes are open
and it's you I thank

You showed me the world
and how cruel it can be
you told me a lie
and set me free

Free from the thought
that things could be good
free from the truth
in which I stood

Now my life's gone
in the ocean I lay
removed from this world
I've gone far away
