floating like the coke

my eyes droop like dying flowers
and my heart flickers like a light.
i'm looking for something wonderful,
but i won't find it tonight.

i see him there and watch him leave
while i stand over here
tears are falling, cheeks are burning
and i'm the last they walk near.

my soul is fading but continues to sing
while i cry, cry, and cry.
i want to live long and fly away
but they make me die, die, die.

forced underwater by their dirty hands
like there won't be another day.
and i cry while waves wash me away
and start to pull me and say:

"there are no words i can say to you
that will make you feel alright.
quit searching for the beautiful songs
because you won't find them tonight."
