only until the boat is sinking
A: As I watched my big boat finish sinking
B: I think to myself, “How am I supposed to get out?”
B: But the thoughts in my head felt like a drought,
A: I could not stop myself from drinking.
A: With sad music in the background crying,
B: Not able to get off the sinking boat,
B: I am wrapped in its’ suffocating coat,
A: The waves in the ocean are rushing.
C: I feel the tears are about to follow,
D: The waves are beginning to get to high,
C: As I begins to drown in his sorrow,
D: My breath becomes quicker, sigh after sigh.
C: The joy that they have, I want to borrow,
D: All I can think now is “the end is nigh.”
