Drowning in Shallow Water
When Tragedy Strikes

A bleeding heart and a dedicated mind
Always looking with no regard of what she'd find
One day a certain guy just caught her eye
She watched her world spin as she struggled for the words to speak
She knew at first sight that it was love
But she forgot to think...was it right?

And then her world became a rainstorm
Her heart battered as she lay torn
And then her world became a tidal wave
Crashing up against the shores
She's found what she's been looking for
She always thought she was beautiful...

She found the affection that he didn't share
No, It wasnt because he didn't care
There was something more, something that she couldn't ignore
A fire burnt behind his hazel eyes
Behind his face, behind his lies
There was something that she just couldn't place
One day he finally spilled the truth despite the fact the wound won't heal
Now she'll hold her breath until she can't feel at all....

And then her world became a rainstorm
Her heart battered as she lay torn
And now her world becomes a tidal wave
Crashing down upon the shores
She thought he was what she was looking for
She needs to hear she's beautiful....

She poured out her heart in the pouring rain
Is there any medicine to stop her pain?
She poured out her heart in the pouring rain
Is there any medicine to stop her pain?

Staring into the mirror she whispered
I'm not pretty enough
Knowing exactly what she had to do
Turning on the water and she slowly sinks it in
Knowing soon the pain will end
Without a fear, without a friend
She holds her breath and it fades to red....

And then her world became a rainstorm
As her heart lay battered as she lay torn
And then her world became a tidal wave
Crying herself to sleep knowing that no one would save her
She's crashing up against the shores
Watching as her life slowly tore
I just wanted to tell you you're beautiful...
You're beautiful...

No one deserves to be like this
A broken heart and bleeding wrists
You're last words written upon a little note
Am I pretty enough now....

And now you're world is just a rainstorm
You're a perfect shade of dark blue
And now you're world is just a tidal wave
Crashing down upon you now
I hope you know you're beautiful
Beautiful....
