2nd Titanic

by niko   Sep 11, 2007


Heading out to sea
Ahead clear skies
Beautiful day
It's going to be a smooth ride

Leaving the dock
No going back now
I'm on my own
Just me and the bow

A little while in
Clouds start forming
I should have taken this
As a warning

But stupid little me
I kept sailing on
Thinking no storm was too big
Soon it'd be gone

Then the rain started
And it didn't stop
My ship out of control
I had to drop

On my knees, praying
To get control back
But I already knew
How much faith I did lack

All I could do
Was watch this unfold
I should have stayed home
Instead of out in this cold

My ship started to break
Cue the panic
I'm going to be
The second Titanic

The water's rising now
My icy cold grave
I barely noticed
My killing wave

Gasping for breath
Trying and failing
Running on empty
A pathetic flailing

As the icy cold sets in
I'm realizing my doom
Thinking of anything I can
To keep me from my tomb

I can't feel my feet
I'm going all numb
Losing all feeling
I've got to succumb

So I let go of myself
Start slipping away
Why didn't I turn back
On that bright sunshiny day?
