I'm floating in a sea of red
Drowning down, can't get no air
And you done told me
I've got no life
I'm rolling my eyes
The last gasp is coming on
All over my body
There's a deep deep chill
It's been coming a long time
The rushing waters are still
It's hopeless to be here
Please take me away
I've finished my walking
I've finished my talking
I can't beg you no more
Let the red sea take me down
So I don't remember not a thing when I wake
There's nothing but goodbye
I've thought all I'm going to think
Take a conjecture
Snuff it out and see
All those glimpses of good things
Got away to the dark
I'm floating in a sea of red
Drowning down, can't get no air
