Drowning Voices

A torrent breaks in
diffused with cold
the air grows thin
with what I've been told
and it runs together
mixing the blood with hurt
we walk with regret,
fearful and curt
there are drowning voices
in my head
now I am someone else
[another one dead]
I am those voices
down in the grave
no life is no hope
and is nothing to save
stop thinking this is gone
these voices won't die
don't pray anymore
when you look to the sky
bring instead a new way
cut out a tampered heart
this is a becoming
that's tearing us apart
I have something to tell
[but the drowning has muted me]
rats are pouring out instead
and I cannot stop to flee...
