Stranded
October 20, 2010
I feel really out of place here
Black oil on the open sea
I’m driving a boat that I can't steer
Nobody here to save me
It feels like I’m underwater
No noise comes from my scream
I shouldn’t even bother
I wish this was a dream
The breeze washes over my skin
But I can't get any air
My voice is becoming thin
Is there anybody out there?
A ship emerges from a foggy cloud
and I stand feeling somewhat strong
I raise my arms and turn around
and see I’ve been tied to the dock all along
