I seem to be growing up so fast
And I can’t seem to stop
My limbs hastily growing as well
Along with my own love, so quickly
They grow at such a stupid rate
So I’ll end up throwing them away

That’s why in order to be able to fufill my love
I’ll keep on being the same greedy me
And then I’ll
Decide to forget and start to hate
The truly clumsy and useless me

And then I’ll...

And then I’ll

This life is no more than a gift
Given to me by my mother and “God”
And so I’ll

Refuse to use it like everyone else
And just toss it with the weekly trash

Without having any high expectations
I feel the curtain begin to raise up high
Revealing a theater seating the truth of life
Empty without a soul

I’m drowning within a wave of sadness
I’m drowning within a wave of sadness

It seems that my heart is very sick
But all medicine never seems to work
Not just that

It’s humiliating but I’m sorta poor
And can’t afford a doctor

That’s why I
Crawl along the distant past
My wounds festering and peeling away

So one day,
The emptiness will disappear as well
Dripping with gore like I’m throwing up again

That kind hearted girl with the dark hair
Who always reads in the corner of the room
I was made fun of for falling in love with her
And the mocking never ends

I’m drowning within a wave of sadness
I’m drowning within a wave of sadness

The departure every morning from the train station
Calling my expected ride
Ends my happy moments all again 
As I step onto the train

In order to live, in order eat, I’ve given up so many precious things
No matter how much time can pass
I’ll never fill this hole

I’m drowning within a wave of sadness
I’m drowning within a wave of sadness

Drowning In A Wave Of Sadness
