Water Is Getting High

I hear their laugh through the door

The little orphan in the hall

The figures dance on the floor

She's peeking in the corridor

Did everything I could

Poor little poor girl

I always played by the rules

Covered up in dirt

Truth or dare?

Are you scared, yet?

I'll hold on to this little strand of hope

And know

One day I'll have a home to go

But now the water is getting high

I'm wading in my own demise

Ten feet to the sunshine

No other way out

The only way to save me

Is to do as they say, please

I've got to find it

I've got to find it

Fumbling in the dark

I can hear nothing but my heart

Beating in my mouth

Thumping in my ears

I wish I wasn't away

Blood rushing out of my ears

Tiny little gems

Light up the cave

I'm saved

Many promises were told

What made you think its so?

The roads paved with gold

Your defence won't hold

I tried to be bold

Boo-hoo boo-hoo

The story unfolds

Who lied, who died?

All alone

Down in the hole I go

I'll hold on to this little strand of hope

And know

One day I'll have a home to go

But now the water is getting high

I'm wading in my own demise

Ten feet to the sunshine

No other way out

The only way to save me

Is to do as they say, please

I've got to find it

Please let me find it

Fumbling in the dark

I can hear nothing but my heart

Beating in my mouth

Thumping in my ears

I wish I wasn't away

Blood rushing out of my ears

Tiny little gems

Light up the cave

I'm saved

Save me!
