Guest vocals by Jon Tumillo

lyrics

Something tells me
I should test these waters
before I dive right in
but it's too late now; I'm sinking now
I am drowning
I used to think that I could swim
but now my head's underwater
I reach out my hand; I'm gasping for air
and all light dims

my friends are all around me
but they don't seem to see
so I grab the one closest to me

together we struggle
struggle for breath
together we struggle
to stay alive
together we struggle
struggle for time
together we struggle
struggle for life

we drift away
and time runs out
we use our last breath
lose our embrace; begin to fall
in separate ways
we both sink towards the ocean floor
we just couldn't hang on no more
we took for granted all we had now
we have nothing

this is my new home.
along side my dead friend on
the sandy floor of the salty sea
my bones will become homes
for fish to reside
I'll fit in just fine
