Another fight, another tear,Another voice, another fear.Another conflict, another year.How our love goes around and aroundUntil that day when you were never found.
I've spent my life sailing the Seven Seas:I live and breathe adventure's call.But I've never seen anyone other than me:Is there anyone out there at all?
Save Me.I'm drowning in the waves of the sea.I'm crying.But nobody cares that I'm dying.I'm screaming.But everyone ignores me.I'm drowning.Down my life is counting.I'm trapped inside myself so I can't swim to shore.Please throw me a rope: that's what friends are for.Another wave, another wave, and just like that I'm gone.It's not like you cared all along.And just like that I'm gone at sea.Why didn't you save me?
