Below the ground your feet tread upon
Before your path even had begun
Where the water leaks through cracks so small
One wrong step could lead to your last fall
I hear you, you’re voice is muffled
I hear your feet go along and shuffle
Take a look under the ground
I’m just a girl waiting to be found
Only a thin layer of crust as our bars
I can almost feel you, but you’re still too far
It’s dark down here, the sun is hidden
It’s cold down here, heat is forbidden
So I sit in this underground river
The water trembles as I shiver
The tide is rising and I bang the rock
But every one of my attempts is blocked
Can you hear me, I have screamed
My fragile life so unredeemed
The air is disappearing at a speedy rate
If you’d save me now, you’d be too late
But before I let my eyelids go down
I break my hand through the ground
And before I let my last breath fly
Your hand touches mine and then I die
