Condemnation

With every breath we die - Breaking Benjamin 

It’s the anchor tied to your wrist carrying you to the darkest shadows of the sea . 
Where agony lives . And the waves above you carry light . 

To tired to fight 
To tired to drowned . 

It’s a wasteland 
Beating down hopes door 
Begging for someone to be home 

I’m screaming under street lights 
Floating ashore 
Heart barely beating under sheets of glass . 

Lost compass . 
Sometimes the storm 
Washes us to new places 
Sometimes the storm 
Reminds us 

We are an army 
We have our swords 
We were not forgotten 
As I search for you on the shore . 

Barely breathing 
He said . 
Barely living 
He said . 

I found your letter in the bottle 
Carry it in my pocket 
Along with this necklace . 

I haven’t drowned yet . 
As they ready for my funeral 
The dawn breaks 

Anchor lost beneath 

The ocean .
