Lisa Cerbone Watching You Drown
It's been hard watching you drown You do it so quietly - I never heard a sound I reach out my arm for you to grab - c'mon grab it... I dive in to find you, but you just keep going down, down, down, down. Something gripped you from below. Taken in by the undertow. In the depths of the dark water, I wait for you to float, stir. Tell me it's all a terrible mistake, Arrive towards light through the water's blur. I see my face in the rear view mirror. I don't recognize it anymore. All my prayers must have been answered. I don't recognize it anymore. I see my face driving away from you. I made a grand plan. Wrote it on a piece of paper. I got you your prescription, it's from the doctor. You said don't push me; just lay it on the table. And when I had to leave, I became another person in this world you would blame. I see my face in the rear view mirror. I don't recognize it anymore. All my prayers must have been answered. I don't recognize it anymore. I see my face driving away from you. I see my face driving away from you. It's been hard watching you burn...
