Silent Anchor

Drag me down slow, deeper below Tethered tight, you won't let go Passive torture, quiet violence Choking slowly on your silence You built this cage, locked the door Threw your keys to the ocean floor Deeper and deeper, I'm pulled below Into depths you'll never know I'm sinking further every day Watching colors fade away Held beneath your apathy I'll keep fighting, but you don't care You're killing me slowly By simply standing there Words like knives, you never speak Bleeding out, too numb to scream Promises rust, trust corrodes Your empty eyes watch me erode You built this cage, locked the door Threw your keys to the ocean floor You stood there just to watch me drown And called this twisted wreck your crown I'm sinking further every day Watching colors fade away Held beneath your apathy I'll keep fighting, but you don't care You're killing me slowly By simply standing there Cut the rope, let me arise Watch me break your perfect lies I scream, I drown, but you just look away Your empire has become my grave I'm sinking further every day Watching colors fade away Held beneath your apathy I'll keep fighting, but you don't care You're killing me slowly By simply standing there I'm starving Suffocating slow By doing nothing You've let me go
