tonight, the night she’s been waiting for
the water has a coldness to it, as if the waves know why she’s there
the chill doesn’t register in her head
she feels nothing, as if already dead
deeper she treads, now up to her knee
if only her demons would leave her be
there is no other way, she must drown them out
only then will she find freedom, there is no doubt
so deeper and deeper she goes
water is now tickling her nose
there is no turning back now
even if she wanted to, she wouldn’t know how
even before this, she has been drowning for so long
tonight it will be complete, she accepts her defeat
tonight she becomes one with the sea, it is her final song.
