Reasons, Excuses, and because; telling me why you don’t love me is as easy breathing and that is something that is getting harder and harder for me to do. Drowning In Because… my head is barely above water, my fault for still hearing anything.

A pool too deep
Angels fly
But where will your feet
Lie

I’m drowning because
It’s you I seek
Drowning because of us

A lake too cold
You are my light, so warm
But you I could never hold
If I were never born

I’m drowning because
You, I’ll never know
Drowning because of us

A river too dirty
Corrupted, violated, muddy
You were naughty and flirty
And I wanted lusty and slutty

I’m drowning because
I was so nerdy
Drowning because of us

An ocean too blue
Or black or red
Filth made true
Unheard, unsung, unread

I’m drowning because
I thought you knew
Drowning because of us

A sea too perilous
Too say hello again
Of you, never enough
Your heart, your skin, and sin

I’m drowning because
You I still love
Drowning because of us

Such is my love
My history
The two of us
Such a misery
Drowning In Because
