I was swimming at unknown rivers
I didn’t know how deep it was
The pressure pushed me down
Suddenly all I saw was darkness
I thought somehow your waves could bring me back
But I was so delighted with all the colors
That it kept me diving each time deeper
Then I gave up, I gave you all of myself
I undressed my soul for you
I was naked when you saw me crying
But the water kept my eyes closed
I was blind, I didn’t see the truth
I was just another swimmer
Another one drowned in your sea
But I thought maybe I could change it
Then the winter came and froze your heart
You said you were too stone to love again
I said I could, I never learn
I said it ‘cause I fell into your water
But you didn’t fall into mine
You fell for someone else
When I saw it, I couldn’t believe in that
But I’m still swimming like the beginning
I am lost in the ocean of your mind
I am drowning into your ocean (Why can’t I go to the surface?)
I am drowning into your ocean (Here’s so dark)
I am drowning…
Here in deep water I still see your face
I remember of when we swam together
But you left me in the dark
I am drowning into your ocean
Do you see it?
I can’t breathe
‘Cause my lungs are full of water
Do you feel it?
Or you just watch?
And pretend that I never existed
I want to erase you from my memory
I want to erase you from my memory
My heart is blue and cold
Because I’m a dead river for you
