A Sail To Sanity

Sought out, killed by chance, raped and slaughtered
Rockets wake me at night
I must leave the certain death
One of the few who values life
All my hope is over
In this sea I abide
Now I sink like a stone
In dark hues I confide
Put a torch to my home
The others are gone, buried
All I have lost, I miss them
Their death is in vain
Waves, take me to the truth
Will I ever be found?
Burning salt in my throat
They've come so far, as have you
A drowning at dusk, farewell
Haven't they paid enough?
They're more than a memory in my own life
Something worse than
Something worse than a slow goodbye
Died by chance
Died so far, hundred miles behind
All my hope is over
In this sea I abide
Now I sink like a stone
These waters hold my cries
No one will bury me
