Swallowed Up in Me

Just because the tears are gone

Doesn't mean I'm not still drowning

The clouds have moved away

But somehow I'm still frowning

Like a child in timeout

I'm stuck waiting

Thinking of a better time

When I won't feel myself fading

Numbness rushes through me

No sound, No feeling, No sight

I ask myself, Who am I?

Can I make it? Will I be alright?

I just need to smash this cage

Shed my burdens, Make myself free

So then I won't be so dull

So swallowed up in me
