I swim in an ocean
Full of all sorts of commotion.
There are sharks all around me,
They’re the only thing I see.
Started with one of them at first,
Then the rest found a thirst
For the blood in my veins
And a heart that gives me pains.
They start to pull me down,
In a hope that I will drown.
It’s useless and futile
But I struggle for a while
Until they get the better of me
And pull me under this sea.
It’s full of the devil’s sin,
And he watches with a grin
As I reach out with my hand
Hoping for some help to land.
Whilst the sharks are on the attack
All of them taking a crack
At pulling me to the floor
Where my end would be sure,
Someone grabs my arm
And tries to pull me from harm.
As my head breaks the surface
I see my saviour looking nervous
Fearing that he might lose me
To the devil’s evil sea.
The sharks won’t let me go,
As they crave for blood to flow,
But my saviour isn’t giving in.
He will free me from this sin,
And won’t stop until I’m free
From this evil sea.
He pulls with his might,
And I grip his hand tight,
But there’s something weighing me down,
And helping the sharks to make me drown.
My saviour tries his best,
And this sea’s at my chest.
But that’s where it stays
Making my heart ablaze
With a pain that’s so real
It’s all I can feel.
My saviour tries to break the weight
That is sealing my fate,
But it’s still there today
As I continue to float away
In a sea full of sin,
Battling with great pain within.
